Joe Jackson?
 
Posted By: <b>Jeff Prizner</b><p>Does the guy in the front look like a VERY young Joe Jackson at all to anyone else? I know he played with a couple of South Carolina (SC on the uniform) teams before New Orleans.<br><br>Yes, probably wishful thinking on my part and chances are slim but I honestly think it does looks somewhat like him. Even has his hat tilted off to the right like I've seen in so many other Jackson pics, plus very similar eyes, nose, ears, lips and chin.<br><br>Thoughts? Thanks!<br><br><img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/bicem/imagehostingmisc/team%20post%20card.jpg" alt="[linked image]"><br><br>enhanced close up...<br><br><img src="http://photos.imageevent.com/bicem/imagehostingmisc/close%20up.jpg" alt="[linked image]"><br><br>

Posted By: <b>Jimi</b><p>Matt,<br><br>I realized that, but the ears do not look alike to me. I do, however, think there is a strong resemblance. <br><br>Jimi<br><br>Always looking for T222 Fatimas!

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Jackson was 6'1&quot;. The guy in the picture looks about 5'9&quot;. But there is a slight similarity in the face.

Posted By: <b>Steve Dawson</b><p>I would say that it is not Joe Jax, based entirely on the shape of the left ear.<br><br><br>Steve

Posted By: <b>Jeff Prizner</b><p>Thanks for the info everyone (except Paul), I agree it's not him, still a cool pickup for 20 bucks!

Posted By: <b>Jimi</b><p>I don't think that's Cicotte next to him either.<br><br><img src="http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee269/jimivintage/EddieCicotte55.jpg" alt="[linked image]"><br><br>Jimi<br><br>Always looking for T222 Fatimas!

Posted By: <b>paulstratton</b><p>I was being a smart a**, but he really does resemble Cicotte.

Posted By: <b>Jimi</b><p>I actually had to do a double take myself when you said Cicotte though. That's why I went and pulled a pic for us to see.<br><br>Jimi<br><br>Always looking for T222 Fatimas!
