Does anybody have any '33 Uncle Jack's Candy cards?
I think it's a highly underrated set and I just love the look of the cards. I'm in love with this set. I only have this one card. Obviously the condition leaves a lot to be desired, but I got it for $5 at a yard sale. I would love to see any Uncle Jack's cards any of you have, especially a nicer Foxx or a copy of the Ruth.

Hack Uncle Jack
I like these cards too.
Here's my only one, I wouldn't mind more but they get expensive in nicer condition...and I guess I can wait until until I finish off a few other accumulation projects. Still, I enjoy this card, given to me as gift from my wife maybe 20 years back Scan is small since I extracted the photo from my registry. The real scan is not on my iPAD

If it's not T206, not many people will care about it. I personally love 1930s regional cards but the majority of pre-war collectors just ignore them.

I have never seem these. What's the story with the hole punches? Redemption offer on the back?

These are great for type collectors, I've always like them and have had a few over the years. Not sure if it's changed...at one time green seemed to be the toughest to come by.

Hi Dan, I think you've seen this one before. I'd like to get an untrimmed version, but they're crazy expensive.

They were distributed in single-card glassine sleeves with a coupon and piece of gum, primarily in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Uncle Jacks were never hole-punched ala George C. Miller for redemptions. Printed in a variety of tints and *I think* some of the shots were borrowed from the Baseball Magazine photos or some other premium. At one point I had 7-8 cards, but sold them off later. Very pretty cards.

The cards are blank-backed and no indication of who Uncle Jack is.
(Unless this is on the previously mentioned glassine envelope which I have never seen) I have an Uncle Jack in Arizona, so I thanked him for producing these cool cards despite him being born 3 years after the cards were distributed.

Picked up this Averill, still in wrapper. Removed it from wrapper to take scans, and noticed the coupon still present, with what appears to be a stick or two of gum/candy in between the card and coupon.
Any idea of value? Thanks! Rob tiger8mush@yahoo.com
