Any other caramel/candy card stories or cards members want to show would be great.

Personally, I hope the prices continue to remain low for the next few years so that I can still afford them. I still have quite a ways to go on some sets. I also hope a few board members eventually are willing to give up some of the more difficult stuff I'm looking for. :D



I know I've posted this before and some of you may be sick of it by now, but I would really love to finish this set someday (at least the known players anyway).

DJ, those red crofts are just totally awesome. To see one is something. To see all those together is simply amazing.



Speaking of E cards and Wagner, here is a picture Pat put together for me (I love looking at them in this form and please excuse the one T card).

Robert, In my opinion everything is cyclical. At this point, everyone seems to only want rare back T206 and is neglecting the fact that the more difficult caramel sets (E105, E104-3, E92 Nadja/Cocoa, etc) have such low pop numbers and simply don't come up for sale. Some of these sets might be somewhat easy to find a type card, but putting a set together is nearly impossible. Meanwhile, the easier sets (E93/E95/E96) might seem too easy to some with the internet and Ebay. I don't think the later E cards were ever quite as popular due to being B&W. Eventually I think the collecting community will realize how difficult some of the E cards can be. As evidence by the group trying to complete the E105 set, it is only going to take 3-5 collectors looking to build sets that will cause the rarer sets to have prices skyrocket again, but until than I'm happy to keep picking up some regardless of condition.



And my latest pickup from tonight to fill in my dirtbag collection :D

DJ, great pick up! I think you stole that one. Well done.

Robert, there are lots of very cool players that won’t break the bank. Bender and Evers are two HOFers with all sorts of E92 variations, and they tend to be reasonable for HOFers. In my personal opinion, I think the Magee card is one of the prettier ones out there, and he is a solid player with many variations (not my card)

Great looking run Pete. Are the blank backs e92 and e104s?

I think these are ripe for appreciation. Demand is cyclical which seems to have been lacking some for quite some time. Great cards shown by all. Thanks for sharing.

There he is.... I was wondering why CY hadn’t made an appearance yet.

Here is another e card to bump this thread bc we need to see something other than PWCC threads.

If it had Harry Hooper and Amos Strunk, I’d have all six known signed CJs.

Great eye candy so far. My candy cards were such faves from the first collection I had to get some of them back!! And most weren't as cheap the second time.

So cool Pete. I really want to try a color run one of these days, specifically in an E94.
