Depending on the back it can be not very rare to extremely rare or one of a kindish.
Usually they pop up in the VG range and sell for 5-8K. There was a very nice one with a skinned back that I believe sold in the 3K+ range. I would expect around 4-5K for a VGish one and it is hard to find one in lesser grade. I see more 7 then 2 on this card.
There are generally several in auctions over the course of the year, but I haven't seen to many for direct sale.
It's Jackson, so many will feel it's over priced. It's his classic image on a black and white card so it's somewhat iconic in that way. It is probably the most afforable playing era none game card.
Personally as a Jackson collector, it is the most available unless you are concerned with the back then it becomes a bit harded. I have been looking for a Boston Store Jackson for 2-3 years and have only seen 1 for sale and that was late last year. I have probably seen 15-25 various Sporting news Jackson's in that same time frame.
As a side note, I find that this card is often off center or has a diamond cut, which is another reason I still don't own one as I haven't found a nicely centered one for a price I liked.
