Interesting item I just acquired from Jackson's 1918 year. It'll be up on Ebay tonight if anyone is interested.

Paul, the listing is gone so I guess you unloaded it super-fast - any chance of sharing some good pictures of it here with us? I know the team had some other big leaguers on it as well, I'd love to see the line up. Jackson and the other ballplayers who played for these war-industry teams got a lot of flak because they were thought to be shirking their patriotic duty by taking a factory job (which was just to play on the company ball team) while others were drafted into the service. Great and rare part of Shoeless Joe's pre-Black Sox career.
