Description

1915 Cracker Jack Charles Comiskey #23 SGC NM+ 86 His tight-fistedness was legendary, and most baseball historians agree that it was the prime catalyst that birthed the plot by his players to throw the 1919 Series. Hero or villain, he's one of the most important figures of the Dead Ball era, and as such is properly represented in this classic set. While equal to the other Jacks offered in our high-grade collection, the white areas of Commy's card are toned half a shade darker, which is the likely cause of a grade as low as an 86. In every other regard, it is certainly as strong as our offered 88's. Still, only a single card has ever graded higher.
