t202 Joe Jackson - Schaefer on First

[bn2cardz]

I was re reading the old t202 thread regarding Joe Jackson, but for the sake of not bumping an old thread and having this question lost in there I wanted to start a new one.

I know for the Lord card the visual evidence can be found in these links:

What I can't find is any visual evidence for the Schaefer on First card. There was a link to an newspaper article by BOTN (Greg) but that has since been removed. I don't recall if it had a photo of the play or just an article supporting the card could be Jackson.

Gregs post:

Does anyone here still have that image they are willing to share? A lot of good evidence came out in that thread, but it is hard to sift through years later.

Since BOTN (Greg) was banned I reached out to him through his email. Even with his ban he was glad to help contribute by sending me the PDF.

I cropped it down for what appeared to be the pertinent info for those that care to preserve it for future research on the subject.

Reviving old thread - curiosity was peaked by item on BST. Was this ever explored more fully?

It does appear that the Panel Photo could be taken just before the Newspaper photo; the position of the sliding player in the panel looking like it would take him past the bag just a bit after completing the slide. Opinions?

There was one recently sold on Ebay with the notation of Joe Jackson.

The blackbetsy site has it listed.

But I don't think a full consensus was ever agreed upon in the hobby.

I just realized the one from the BST is the same one that I referenced selling on Ebay with the name.

Here are the 2 remaining T202 cards from my set. The Walter Johnson card being my favorite T202. And of course, the Lord/Tannehill
card (with possibly Joe Jax in the centerfold) being a keeper.
My feelings that it is Joe Jax sliding into 3rd base is based on 3 factors.....

Cleveland's League Park in the background (Right Field wall)
Cleveland uniform of runner sliding
Joe Jackson's big ears (under his cap)

However, my certainty is only a 67 - 33% proposition.

I believe there is more hobby consensus that the Lord/Tannehill card does have Jackson. It is the Schaeffer on First card that hasn't gotten the same type of consensus.

The stadiums are different.

[Webster]

It's possible that the stadiums are different, but it is difficult to tell from the images: the photos are taken from different angles (one has the pitcher in view, the other is angled much more toward left field), and the newspaper image is heavily cropped with frame and scroll drawn in along the edges.

[bn2cardz]

I think you would have to look at the full conversation to understand the case for/against this being Jackson on the Schaefer card:

I started this thread in regards to that original thread because I couldn't find the image in that thread.

The original thread to me was the greatest thread that was ever on Net 54. Unbelievable research into the cards.!!!
