Signed Cracker Jack
Only a handful of autographed Cracker Jack cards are known to the hobby, these autographed Cracker
Jack cards of Rube Marquard (two different), Amos Strunk, Edd Roush and Harry Hooper
were produced from 1914-15 by Rueckheim Bros. & Eckstein, later known as the Cracker Jack Company, which is now
a division of Frito-Lay. As you can see, the set, which was distributed in two series in 1914 and 1915 (E145-1 and E145-2,
respectively), featured colored player photo set against a bright red background. The cards are numbered and include
player biographies on the reverse.
None of these cards are part of the T206Collector.com permanent collection, but each is shown with the gracious permission
of its proud owner.
