COOPERSTOWN, NY – Several artifacts featured in the new motion picture release ‘42’ have arrived in Cooperstown at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum and will be featured in a new exhibit to open in July to pay tribute to the film’s portrayal of Jackie Robinson in breaking baseball’s color barrier in 1947.
Kelly Bennis, ZOZ's Movie Maven, went to see "42" this week. This movie starring Chadwick Boseman, Harrison Ford, and Nicole Beharie follows a few years in the life of Jackie Robinson, who made history when he signed on with the Brooklyn Dodgers as the first African American to play in Major League baseball.
