Hershiser recently purchased 10 Dodgers art pieces of world-renowned sports artist Dave Hobrecht, including a piece titled 'Grace' featuring Robinson praying around a table with former Dodgers greats and Martin Luther King Jr.
Hobrecht's classic black-and-white sports paintings are collected worldwide; Hershiser aims to keep 'Grace' in the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum to enhance historical understanding.
"The original 'Grace' painting was a result of a conversation between Newcombe and former Dodgers GM Ned Colletti, who collaborated with Hobrecht on 'The All-Time Dodgers Art Book.'"
