The innovative BF2s were issued as premiums with Ferguson Bakery products and were designed with a photograph of a given star affixed to a felt pennant with the player's name and team identified below. Offered is the key to the set: Joe Jackson (gray color variation). Jackson is pictured in BF2 in the same pose as he appears in the Cracker Jack and M101-4/5 Sporting News sets. This is one of the very few, and one of the most unusual, issues featuring Joe Jackson dating from his playing days. Encapsulated as "Authentic" by SGC, the pennant is in Excellent condition with no visible fraying or staining. The image area is crisp and virtually flawless. This is a very attractive high-grade example of this classic pennant, rarely found this sharp! Dimensions: 5.75 inches long. Reserve $300. Estimate $500+.
