Here's my problem with Cracker Jacks, and its sort of my same issue with M116s...

How do you calculate for condition when there are so many that were found in pristine condition in envelopes many years later? There is just so much opportunity to be one-upped condition-wise, and I really don't think they look that great with staining -- even if staining is normal.

There are just too many high grade CJs on ebay even as I type this now to get a rationale value for lesser condition stuff, in my humble opinion.

I like the stains as they add character and were obtained in the child-like way of eating candy. Im going ro the set, trying to finish in 10 years, in lower grade 1-3 range. My cards need to be writing free, rip free, no pin holes but dont mind other damage but focusing on eye appeal. Started in may 2010 on this, my most favorite of cards. And who cares about being 1-up'd? I try not compare my cards to others and focus on buying a condition I can live with and enjoy and not cringe at.

A couple with pedigrees. Nice to see LC and I shared similar condition requirements.

I don't mind the stains if they aren't too dark and aren't on the player's face. Here's a few more CJs:
