Shoeless Joe Jackson – 1909 American Caramel

The Shoeless Joe Jackson version is quite similar to that of Honus Wagner, whose cards were printed by the American Caramel Company. Their ulterior motive seemed to be a sales tactic to boost their cigarette sales. However, his name and story have been slow out on baseball’s back burner due to allegations he was involved in the 1919 Chicago Black Sox gambling incident. Jackson’s cards are still worth a fortune as an auction in 2016 raised over $660,000 for a good condition card.

Joe Doyle – 1911 ATC T206

The ATC T206 collection had most, if not all, its legends inducted into the Hall of Fame. However, Joe Doyle made it to the few players who never got a chance to shine in this area. We could say his plays were underrated, and before long, it seemed as though his name was no longer a part of the strength and history of baseball. But, even with all the odds against him, having one of his cards could get you a good amount of cash – like somewhere near $415,000.
