As a term in common speech, "a crackerjack team" would mean "a team of experts, the best in the business". "Crackerjack", as an American colloquialism goes back to about 1900, and has always meant "A-1, excellent". The first person to taste the peanut-and-popcorn coated snack remarked to the inventor: "That's crackerjack!" and the name is what the inventor used for the product.

What was the price of a box of cracker jack in 1920?

In the 1920's, the Cracker Jack prizes were mainly pot metal trinkets. There were some paper items but most of those are very hard to find today. The metal trinkets actually were placed in the bottom of the box or the bottom of the bag of Cracker Jacks.


What is the value of a Louisville Slugger baseball bat that reads John John cracker jack all star on it?

H&B Craker Jack Baseball BatI'm not familiar with this particular variation of the Cracker Jack Bat. The Craker Jack baseball bats are commonly found on eBay selling for about $40.00 in excellent condition. Size and condition are important on putting a value on the bat. The Craker Jack was an inexpensive kids baseball bat carried for years in the Hillerich & Bradsy line of store model retail bats. The Cracker Jack model has nothing to do with the caramel coated popcorn snack as some people believe. If anything the naming of the bat was a marketing ploy to sell bats off of the popularity of the snack.The bats were being sold by H&B from about the 1920's through the 1950's, and maybe into the 1960's. More information would be needed on the markings on the bat to date your particular bat. I will leave a link below (Related Links) to help you date your baseball bat. It might be difficult to date the bat. If it has the H&B label. The earlier H&B labels have a "question mark like" engraving on each side of the H&B logo.Some Cracker Jack bats read Hillerich & Bradsby Co. above the "Cracker Jack" center oval, and Louisville, KY below. This might be difficult to date as well but if it has the question mark like" engraving on each side it should date to the 1920's -1930's
