Trees and tall grass surround her and two people are following behind her. She is wearing a blue coat, shirt, satchel bag, and has a kerchief tied over her hair. The illustration is framed with yellow bands and white columns on either side. The masthead at the top is printed in black text in a yellow box that reads [GOLDEN LEGACY / ILLUSTRATED HISTORY MAGAZINE], set against a black background. The logo for Fitzgerald Publishing Company is printed in a yellow circle to the left of the masthead. It has the initials [F / P] printed in white and black ink. A yellow circle to the right of the masthead displays the cover price [25¢] printed in black ink. The interior pages are newsprint with color illustrations. The last few pages include short biographies on Daniel Hale Williams, Ira Aldridge, Bishop James Augustine Healy, Jean-Baptiste-Pointe Du Sable, and a review of Golden Legacy. The back cover features a full color advertisement for Coca-Cola with Carmen de Lavallade. The comic book has thirty-one pages.

    Caption
    Seth Jones became the highest-drafted African American in National Hockey League (NHL) history when he was selected fourth overall by the Nashville Predators in the 2013 NHL Draft.
    After being traded to Columbus Blue Jackets in 2016, Jones has established himself as a three-time All-Star for the Blue Jackets and one of the best defensemen in the entire NHL. Known as a fierce and relentless defender, Jones is a versatile star who can also score goals and dish out assists. Jones has become an African American star in a sport that has been slow to embrace diversity. Despite a record 28 black players playing in the NHL during the 2017-18 season, blacks accounted for roughly only three percent of the league.
    Description
