The following 21 lots consist of a complete set of E90-1 American Caramel of 120 cards. Including the very rare Mitchell, Cincinnati, the rare and desirable Joe Jackson, as well as Ty Cobb, two Honus Wagners, many rarities and the stars of the era.



Lot 87.  E90-1 American Caramel Mike Mitchell, Cincinnati SGC 60 EX 5. This is a striking ex+-mt card with a tiny spot on the 2nd "L" in baseball on the back of the card (magnified scan on request). The card is very well centered, vibrant color, sharp corners and aside from the above mentioned spot, a flawless back. Otherwise, a striking appearance and one of the nicest examples of this great rarity that you will ever see. Only one is higher in the SMR.
Winning Bid $12,543.


Lot 88.  E90-1 American Caramel Joe Jackson, Phila. Am. SGC 10 POOR 1. The E90-1 Jackson card has become enormously popular and copies in far lesser condition than the one offered here have been bringing five figures. A very nice card that would normally grade very good or good-very good which has been downgraded because of a period purple overprint on the rear (see scan), a corner crease in the lower right and a tiny pinhole at the bottom just below and left of the "P". The back, aside from the overprint, has normal soiling and no other problems. You won't find a better "Poor" card than this.
Winning Bid $9,503.


Lot 89.  E90-1 American Caramel Ty Cobb, Detroit, 40 SGC VG 3. Nicely centered with a wonderful appearance. Some minor toning at the very bottom and the back is clean.
Winning Bid $2,148.


Lot 90.  E90-1 American Caramel, Honus Wagner, Pittsburgh, throwing SGC 10 POOR 1. One of two Wagner's in the E90-1 set. The card has an acceptable appearance on the front, despite a vertical crease and some wear at the right side. The rear has serious paper loss going down the left side.
Winning Bid $711.


Lot 91.  E90-1 American Caramel, Honus Wagner, Pittsburgh, batting, SGC 30 GOOD 2. Extremely nice excellent + appearance on the front. A tiny stain in the upper border on the front and a larger transparent stain on the rear. Also a minor abrasion on the back, at the bottom, resulting in minimal paper loss.
Winning Bid $2,077.


Lot 92.  E90-1 American Caramel "Peaches" Graham, Boston NL, SGC 60 EX 5. Well centered with a beautiful appearance. Can't get much nicer for one of E90-1's greatest rarities. Only one higher in SMR.
Winning Bid $2,285.


Lot 93.  E90-1 American Caramel Christy Mathewson. 40 SGC VG3. Nicely centered with a wonderful appearance. The back is immaculate. It deserved a higher grade.
Winning Bid $1,183.


Lot 94.  E90-1 American Caramel Fred Clarke, Pitts. Nat'l, 40 SGC VG3. Clarke was originally issued with a Philadelphia NL affiliation in the E90-1 set, a team for which he never played. The card was crudely corrected to Pittsburgh, and has become one of the set's biggest rarities. The card is centered to the top, which kept the grade down.
Winning Bid $600.


Lot 95.  E90-1 American Caramel Bill Sweeney, Boston NL, SGC 30 GOOD 2. Light corner creases in the upper left and lower right. Some light soiling on rear. Very nice appearance on one of E90-1's greatest rarities.
Winning Bid $500.


Lot 96.  E90-1 American Caramel Hugh Duffy, Chicago AL, SGC 30 GOOD 2. Well centered, no creases. Some very minor soiling on front and back. Should have been a 3 or a 4.
Winning Bid $711.


Lot 97.  E90-1 American Caramel Willie Keeler, NY AL Portrait, (Red background), SGC 50 VG-EX 4. Sharp card centered to the right. Great photo.
Winning Bid $967.


Lot 98.  E90-1 American Caramel Tris Speaker, Boston Am., Rare card, SGC 30 GOOD 2. There is some light wrinkling along the left border and a light horizontal crease. Otherwise, a well centered, striking card.
Winning Bid $1,909.


Lot 99.  E90-1 American Caramel Cy Young, Boston AL, Portrait, SGC 40 VG 3. The easier of the two Young cards and the more attractive. Wonderful portrait with a red background. Well centered and clean, front and back. There is a nearly imperceptible 1/4" wrinkle on the right side.
Winning Bid $1,433.


Lot 100.  E90-1 American Caramel Ed Walsh, Chicago AL. SGC 20 FAIR 1.5 Still looking for why this very good-excellent card was downgraded so badly. There are no creases, no spots of paper loss, excellent centering. The only reason appears to be the slight angular cut at top and bottom. A ridiculous grade. $500.
Winning Bid $1,735.


Lot 101.  E90-1 American Caramel Orvie Overall, Chicago NL, SGC 50 EX 4 One of E90-1's unheralded rarities. Beautiful card with angular cuts at the top of bottom.
Minimum Bid $400.
