Three part TRIVIA quiz......

Since 1984 with The Natural, there have been a good number of BB movies and my favorite of these is the....FIELD of DREAMS.
It has an excellent cast and an uplifting positive story. And, usually any movie with James Earl Jones is in it, is a good one.
You just have to love his character in this movie.

1st Trivia.....Name James Earl Jones "rookie" movie ?

2nd Trivia.....A young Ray Liotta's role as Shoeless Joe Jackson is well acted.....except for ?

3rd Trivia.....Field of Dreams and Eight Men Out were in the movies in the late '80s. Both focusing on Shoeless Joe Jax.....so, I
ask how much did these movies influence the sudden value increase of his BB cards....i.e., E90-1, Cracker Jack, etc., etc....?

Note....1989 SCD Price Guide lists E90-1 Joe Jax for $800....1914,15 Cracker Jacks for $1500.

..........1992 SCD Standard Cat. lists the E90-1 for $7500....Cracker Jacks for $8000 each.

In that short time interval the values of the other Stars in these sets increased nominally.
