Re......E90 Joe Jackson ?
Scott
It took me quite a while, but I put together a complete 120-card E90-1. In the process, I always wondered why Joe Jackson was never
depicted as a MAJOR LEAGUER in any of the T-sets (T201, T202, T205, T206, T213, T214 & T215) that American Lithographic produced.
However, I can see why American Caramel included him in their 1st series of the E90 set. Shoeless Joe was a Minor League phenom, who
Connie Mack gave a try with his Philadelphia A's in August 1908.
The American Caramel Co. was based in Philly and its owner, Daniel Lafean, was close friends with Connie Mack.
Furthermore, if you consider the T216 cards....which were printed by the same printer who did the E90 cards....Joe Jackson is not in any
of the three T216 sets. So, this mystery continues.
Scott......I'm curious, do you have any thoughts on why Joe Jackson isn't in any of the major T-sets ?
