Lot Essay

Poignant portrait image capturing one of the eight co-conspirators in the 1919 "Black Sox" scandal. Black and white 5"x7" image shows Jackson in the Chicago White Sox uniform that he would not be permitted to wear after his 1920 banishment from the game of baseball. Registration is quite fine with some moderate surface wrinkling to the front and few small surface abrasions at top right area. Back has International News stampings with pencil titling, "Joe Jackson Baseball Crook". One of the more sought after images of Jackson from the period. Encapsulated by PSA/DNA (Type I): VG-VG/EX
