They still have a prize...they are just crappy paper prizes. Sometimes they still do the mini baseball cards. Cracker jacks are expensive enough...they should go back to real plastic toys...the paper stuff is no fun.

Thanks for your comment and interest. Prior to 1997 the tagline for Cracker Jacks was "Candy coated popcorn, peanuts and a prize." Prizes were included from 1912 on (plastic toys, decoder rings, tiny baseball cards). I'll plan to include some other examples in future auctions.

Thanks for commenting. I added a Cracker Jack toy charm stagecoach to another auction listing as well in view of the interest shown for these collectibles. I'll attempt to add others going forward.

I want this so bad. I hope my points show up before the auction ends. My son has a collection of crackerjack prizes. I used to get him one at the antique store every friday nite.

Great that you have contributed to your son's collection. I hope this is worthy. I know the challenge having credits can be as I purchased and then returned them to Listia during the shortfall when I wanted an item and was waiting for sale credits to arrive. Best wishes on your son's collection. I'll try to add additional Cracker Jack prize charms during future weeks.
