Offset lithographic poster in colors, commemorating the First Annual Cracker Jack Old Timers Baseball Classic, a nostalgic baseball event that brought together retired Major League Baseball players for a game celebrating the sport’s legends, inscribed and autographed by Hank Aaron, Brooks Robinson, and Warren Spahn to the lower margin, framed below glass.

Frame dimensions 30 1/2 x 21 1/2 in.

The Cracker Jack Old Timers Baseball Classic was inaugurated in 1982 at RFK Stadium in Washington, D.C. Produced by Cecil & Associates, it featured recently retired players and Hall of Famers in a friendly exhibition. It was an early precursor to what became more formal "Old Timers' Days" across MLB.

These games were part celebration, part publicity, and often supported charitable causes such as the APBPA.

Condition: A-; Soft waviness to the sheet at lower edge, mounted to a backing, not examined outside the frame.
