Welcome to the forum, Herb, and best of luck with your Cracker Jack collection.

If you haven't read Tom & Ellen Zappala's book The Cracker Jack Collection: Baseball's Prized Players, I highly recommend it. I got it for Christmas, and I've had a hard time putting it down. I'm in no way affiliated with them, I just have a love for the sets, like you, and wanted to learn more about the cards before starting to collect them. I won't be working on the full sets, but I will be adding cards over time from the players I really like.

If you're looking to buy them, you'll want to check out our Buy/Sell/Trade forums. As the cards are from 1914 and 1915, you'll find them on the pre-war board:

Have fun, and if you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

Bill
