I was thinking that this site just doesn't have enough CHICAGO related threads so why not post your favorite White Sox, Cub or even Whale cards. You can even post rare backed T206s if you must. I'll start with a Cubby.

Pete
I got a group of Uzits graded and I think when looking at several of the same type cards at the same time, some may seem a tad better-hence the bump in grade. They probably would all have been 40s if submitted seperately.
I also have my share of 30s that I think should be 50s-so it is nice to get one some times.

Thanks Jim. For some reason, my instant thinking on the year is 1904 - but I don't know quite why I think that. I"ll pull it out later and look.
Either way, no connection with the VB's or Sub Rosa groups. This team played quite a bit later than those issues, and the VB/SR's were posed models and not actual players.

My only cards of Mordecai, I don't have any cards of Joe Jackson on the Sox yet, but I'm working on it.
Great cards everyone.

Ok he did not play for any Chicago teams but he is the founder, owner of the Chicago White Sox, Built Comiskey park and helped steer the Western League to become the American League in 1900 and make it pro in 1901.
