Legendary baseball Hall-of-Famer Honus Wagner is up for grabs here, with this 1915 Cracker Jack card, considered one of his most striking and popular cards. The back of card #68 of the 176-card set informs that "Hans" has batted over .300 for ten years and that the cards were "given free with Cracker Jack, The Famous Popcorn Confection - one card in each package." Text on the reverse is indeed upside-down, with the card technically in the "Good" range, with rounded corners, caramel staining/soiling and a touch of paper loss on the back. No unsightly creases to mention although a couple of small bends can be felt. One of the three key cards in the set, along with Ty Cobb and Joe Jackson, it displays better than its technical grade.
