Is this card currently for sale somewhere? I can't find any listing.

I'm assuming that if it has been pulled, it was pulled at a certain card shop in Baltimore.

But seriously...a Pete Rose signature where the Rose was cut off? Come on. It doesn't matter that the Jackson is first name only but it's so lame to then "match" first name and first name only.

These cards have been and always will be a joke. Placeholders in autograph collections, nothing more. At least take a moment in something other that Microsoft Word to design a card.

Huggins and Scott have plenty of historic autographs but this house of cards is embarrassing.

On the back the font is off centered. Looks like an eight year old made this thing!

Only 40 more to go. What happens at 10,000?

Why is Jackson's first name missing the "e"?
I know he was illiterate, and only a few authentic examples exist, but everyone I've seen, including the Leaf one in this thread, are signed Joe with an e.

It is cut from this envelope, sold at auction for 48K. It is pretty clear that Jackson wrote his name twice, and this was the start of a third (most likely a practice).
