1915 Cracker Jack Pickup

aaron41984 · Mar 27, 2010

I just picked these up at a local show for what I think was a reasonable price. They are not in very good condition. I doubt they would grade higher than 3. Can anybody help me out with a fair assumption on a price point. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Those look like reprints

They look better in the pic than in hand. How can I validate authenticity?

Have them graded

The cardboard looks a little glossy (yes I know they are in a 9-card older) and the corner wear is near identical on every card. Look like reprints to me, too.

obviously, but that doesn't help right now.

See how white your borders are?

Authentic ones are going almost 95% be yellowed a bit. You're also going to see mostly less vivid red.

Don't bother having them graded as they are just reprints.

Here's a legit graded copy.

Having worked very closely with the 1915 Cracker Jacks issue....those are 100% reprints. The gloss is off....however, the typed font is not right at all. Sorry. Edited to add....the Cracker Jack issues are printed on very, very thin stock of cardboard.....almost like paper. The scans show the stock is thicker that a real issue.

Thanks guys... We reversed the deal. Appreciate the help. I better stick to the new stuff that I understand. Ha
