WARNING: T206 thread...Who is this ghost???
 

A ghost just in time for Halloween:D

I picked up this T206 Jackson at the last Philly show. I didn't pay too much attention to the back when I bought it, but what I originally took as dirt/stain on the back appears to actually be a ghost image. I just don't know who it is. I originally thought it was Jackson because of the part in the hair and collar area, but not sure.

Does anybody have any thoughts as to who it might be? Chris (ATX840), I think this is right up your alley.

Mr. Jackson
 

From the hairline I think that Mr. Jackson is on both sides of the card.

the part doesn't look like it's in the center...like Jackson...maybe chance?

It looks like Honus Wagner.

I agree with Frank on this one...looks like Jackson on reverse as well. Of course I could be wrong tho!

Well then, Honus Wagner it is!!!

Taking offers:D:D:D

When in doubt it's Honus Wagner.

You're supposed to say it's the centerpiece of your collection first.

Oh yeah, it's the centerpiece of my collection. Large scans available on request.

Taking offers:D:D:D

Rob, we can just trade straight up for your J=K Lajoie though.

it certainly isn't jackson, that's for sure...look at the collar on the "ghost".

the hairline is the dead giveaway....the collar matches also...

Thank you. What's my prize?

To account for inflation...twice what you won the last time you were correct.:D

Can almost make out a few letters on his chest.

I take two days off and I miss this. These are 99% always the player on the front. Nice card!

I think it looks like the Zig-Zag man myself.

It looks like Eddie Plank to me:)
