Texas Tommy Joe Jackson. My quest for one, any one, spans decades, but I fear it will never happen.

I've always thought this was the coolest set ever, and this is easily the coolest card in the set.

If I could pick one card in the hobby to go back in time and purchase it would be a sporting new ruth. Amazing card.

Haven’t been in the boards much lately - so fun looking at these beautiful cards. Here’s my favorite card I own:

Mine too. Note the cert#s. Looked up the # in between ours and it's another 2.

Very cool...and that's a beautiful PSA 2 by the way. It might be nicer than my 4.5!

I know that you’re a big fan of centering. When it comes to a card like this, how do you evaluate centering? In particular, it seems like the upper black line slants upwards as it moves across from left to right. Not sure if this is just an optical illusion that I’m seeing, but would be interested in your thoughts about whether the top/bottom centering should be measured on the left side, the right side, or in the middle.
Hey Raulus, on the 52 Jackie specifically, they all have that uneven top boarder, it's part of the design on that card. Any copy in which the bottom inner image is parallel with the bottom edge of the card, the top inner image is always uneven like that.

Great cards!

Andy, I used to own that Murphy BL 460. Really nice example. I was just saying to another advanced T206 collector, I think the really tough rare backs (Uzit, Drum, BL 460) have pretty much dried up; don't see them for sale too often these days. Enjoy the card!
