T206 Blacksox
Posted By: <b>Henry</b><p>Which players in the t206 set are blacksox besides Chick Gandil. At first I thought all of them were but am having second thoughts.<br /><br /><br /> Thanks, Henry

Posted By: <b>zach</b><p>Yupp those are it. You won't be finding a Joe Jackson or his five other friends anytime soon in the T206 set.

Posted By: <b>William Heitman</b><p>Hal Chase was actually indicted along with the players. He was in California when he was served, but service was quashed by a California court. He wasn't pursued.

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>Let's add the boxing Champ, Abe Attell, to the mix.<br /><br />While he, obviously, isn't a T206 guy he can be found in<br />the T219 set and also in the 1948 Leaf Boxing set (and I<br />am sure in a few more sets).<br /><br />His fighting career (Won 107 & lost 10) had ended a few years<br />before the "scandal" and was the betting guy involved with<br />the White Sox players.<br /><br />Adam W. could provide us with more elaboration on Abe. <br /><br />

Posted By: <b>BlackSoxFan</b><p>Chase was fringe in the scandal and i don't think the Maharg/Graham idea really holds any water. It is disputed, but that's just my two cents.<br><br>Regards,<br /><br />Black Sox Fan<br /><br />- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -<br /><a href="http://www.blacksoxfan.com" target="new" border="0"><img src="http://www.blacksoxfan.com/images/art/sig.jpg"></a><br /><a href=mailto:shoelessjoe@blacksoxfan.com?subject=Ne t54>email me</a>

Posted By: <b>joe</b><p>Not a player, but find it interesting that Detroit Sportswriter Joe Jackson was mistaken for the player Joe Jackson in a speakeasy and asked about the fix. The original Financial Ledger from the Detroit team that I have has expenses paid for Sportswriter Joe Jackson to ride the train and other expenses on the road. <br /><br />Joe

Posted By: <b>William Heitman</b><p>The Maharg/Graham idea was debunked back when the scandal broke, Billy Maharg did play in one game in the major leagues--the Tiger's strike game when Ty Cobb was suspended. Graham's and Maharg's lives have been separately traced.

T206 Blacksox
Posted By: <b>Julie Vognar</b><p>but who ever heard of the name Maharg..it's SO weird--unless it's Graham spelled backwards.<br /><br />Anyone have a photo of ArnoLd Rothstein?
