It could be that Joe's illiteracy kept him out of any deals with advertisers other than the ones we know of. If he received requests or contracts and never read them or responded to them I assume the companies just skipped him or felt he wasn't interested. Afterall, they were trying to sell candy or a tobacco and not cards of particular players. the feeling may have been that enough "stars" of the day were represented in their tobacco or candy inserts to attract buyers without the likes of Joe Jackson picture.
Does anyone know if Jackson was ever used to sell furniture or shoes by local stores in Cleveland....just curious.
