1916 Famous & Barr Co. Joe Jackson #86 PSA EX-MT+ 6.5 - Pop One, Only One Higher! The 1916 baseball season captured Joe Jackson in the prime of his career, a time when he was one of the most talented and celebrated players in Major League Baseball. Playing for the Chicago White Sox, Jackson was known for his exceptional hitting ability, boasting a career batting average that remains one of the highest in baseball history. His prowess at the plate, combined with his speed and defensive skills in the outfield, made him a standout player of his era. Despite his on-field success, Jackson's legacy is complex, marred by his association with the 1919 Black Sox scandal, yet he remains a figure of enduring fascination and debate among baseball historians and fans.
