What is Topps had rushed a Jackie Robinson card into production between the time he was traded to the Giants and the time he announced his retirement?

This is my beta version, I haven't printed it yet.

    Hey! I was going to do a 57 Topps of Robinson! I still will, eventually, but I can't put him in the Giants Uniform. I always wondered why there was no 57 Topps card. He played in 56, and he is on the 57 team card. So they never made a card back then that showed the stats for his entire career.

    Nice work, even though I can't see him as a hated Giant!!!

    Bob ... THAT card fits so well into the '57 set. You sure that was not an original card that has been lost all these years? LOL
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
