The 20th Century saw the emergence of organized professional black baseball in the face of segregation of the national game, the flow of dozens of black stars from the ranks of the Negro Leagues into major league baseball after the collapse of the color ban in the late 1940s, and a revitalization of interest in (and recognition of) the contributions of the Negro Leagues at the end of the century. This striking "Century Of Pride"™ t-shirt commemorates the legacy of Negro League baseball in the 20th Century. This distressed print t-shirt is a heavyweight 90/10 cotton/poly blend athletic heather printed in a vintage style. Imported. Printed in the U.S.A.
