Lot # 2: 1914 E145 Cracker Jack #68 Honus Wagner SGC VG 3

Graded VG 3 by SGC. The 1914 Cracker Jack is understandably one of Honus Wagner's most striking and popular cards. The "Flying Dutchman" is one of the big four key cards in the set, along with Cobb, Mathewson, and Jackson. This well-centered card has an extremely bold red background, outstanding registration, and moderate corner wear. Bright and clean, both front and back, with faint hints of caramel staining (which is usually found on #144 series cards). There is a tiny crease visible just below the top-left corner. The 1914 Cracker Jacks, of course, are far rarer to find in high grade than their 1915 counterparts, because the 1914 #144 series cards were issued only in boxes of Cracker Jack. This card would be a highlight addition to any collection of Cracker Jack, Honus Wagner, or vintage Hall of Fame cards.
