Great eye appeal for a 2!

Yeah, you rarely ever see those come up for sale...
Unicorns for sure.

That's a Cracker Jackson!

Sorry...

Just these two for me. Always wanted to add a couple more but as had been mentioned most are quite rare and expensive now.

When I talk to the vast majority of people I know about my baseball "card" collection I use the word "card" because it's easier than trying to explain the esoteric stuff that I collect.

I sold my complete m101-2 set (including two copies of the Jackson) during the Apocalypse.

Here are my favorite Joe Jackson "cards" in my collection, the m113s are each a different printing, you can tell from the different captions. I believe that the "Joe" version was released in Sept 1912, in a group that included the 12th thru 17th m113s printed.

Dang, such a sweet collection to scroll thru!

All those different and rare advertising backs...amazing.

Jeff, I really like your M101s of Joe Jax, especially the HOLMES-TO-HOLMES card because (1) there aren't many HTH cards that don't have significant back damage, and (2) Holmes Bakery was located in the DC area, where I have lived my entire life.

Thanks Sal, Brian, and Val

I to love those 1916 Ad backs and I had 2 others and traded them away to get the Ruth Rookie card.

That Holmes to Holmes is my pride for the reason Val said and it is amazing how many different ad backs there are

The hardest part is trying to get an early Jackson for my collection

Well, with almost 2/3 of the members who replied owning no Jacksons, I think it's safe to say that no matter how narrowly one defines the hobby, Jackson is not a top 10 collected player. I remain surprised by all the people who identified him as such.

At least I prefaced my list by identifying it as a top ten most desired list, and strictly 20th century and PreWW2.
