Branch Rickey & Branch Rickey, Jr. Letters to Cal Abrams (4)
Details of reserve Dodgers outfielder Cal Abrams' financial particulars are here in black and white. One piece of correspondence references an optional minor league assignment and the other specifies salary and contract info. The two letters speak of Abrams' 1948 contract and renegotiating his 1949 pact. Signatures on the two letters rate 10/10. Abrams played his first three seasons with Brooklyn but didn't see much playing time, partly due to several quality players ahead of him and partly due to a personality conflict with manager Charlie Dressen, who was instrumental in expediting his trade in 1952.
