Smoky Joe Wood Autographed Cards
Joe Wood lived until 1985, to the ripe old age of 95. Given his popularity -- and the breadth of Joe Wood autographs items in the hobby -- I find it surprising that the only signed pre-war card of Wood's I have ever seen is a clean M116 signed in what appears to be blue sharpie. (It is not mine, but you can see it on my website if you are so inclined to look.)
According to VintageCardPrices.com, Wood appeared on a number of popular sets in the second decade of the 20th Century, including:
M116 Sporting Life
T202 Hassan Triple Folders
T207 Brown Backgrounds
WG4 Polo Grounds Game
WG5 National Game
WG6 Tom Barker Game
1914 & 15 Cracker Jack
E224 Texas Tommy
M101-4
M101-5
D328 & D329 Weil Baking Co.
D350 Standard Biscuit
D381 Fleischmann Bakery
H801
E135 Collins-McCarthy
Anyone ever seen any of these signed by Smoky Joe Wood?
