Lot # 17: 1915 Cracker Jack #7 Eddie Collins SGC NM/MT 8

Graded NM/MT 8 by SGC. An integral component of Connie Mack's “$100,000 Infield,” Philadelphia Athletics Hall of Famer Eddie Collins looks like a million bucks on the offered 1915 Cracker Jack #7 portrait. This stunning 110-year-old showpiece combines a vivid player likeness against a brilliant red background setting with razor-sharp corners/edges and an immaculate reverse. The SGC population census reports only two better and this "Cocky" ranks in the upper 17% of all similar copies judged by the authenticator.
