Kansas City Monarchs 1942 Road Jersey - Grey

History: Owned by Effa Manley––the first woman inducted into Cooperstown––and representing Newark, New Jersey, in the Negro National League, the '42 Eagles featured an 18-year-old outfielder named Larry Doby, who appeared in 18 games for the club. Five years later, and three months after Jackie Robinson broke the Major League color barrier in 1947, Doby would break the American League color barrier while playing for the Cleveland Indians.

History: In a career that spanned 40 years, legendary pitcher Satchel Paige (#25) famously played anywhere he could collect a paycheck. Paige has been officially credited as playing for 17 different professional ballclubs in five different countries. However, Paige is most associated with his time playing for the Kansas City Monarchs. In particular while playing in this uniform and leading the Monarchs to their ninth league pennant and second Negro World Series title in 1942.

Kansas City Monarchs 1942 Road Jersey - Grey

History: Can you imagine a team with both Satchel Paige and Jackie Robinson? For one brief year in 1945, the Grand Old Man of the Negro leagues and the young future pioneer were teammates in Kansas City. The Monarchs' road uniforms in 1945 had a different color scheme (navy and gold instead of the traditional red and navy) and differing roster numbers than the home uniforms, with Satch wearing #0 on the road while Robinson wore #23.
