Why not more love for Caramelo Deportivo
As someone who has almosted completed this set I will admit this may be a bit of a self serving post. But I think it is a valid question- why so little interest in this set. While not great beauties they are not bad when you consider contemporary issues like 1948 Bowan or even 1941 Play Ball. While not a ton of names familiar to casual fans set has three HOFERS ( Dihgo, Raymond Brown, and Ray Dandridge) and a bunch of popular players ( Maglie, Minoso, Luque) and a bunch of negro leaguers. Further they are fairly rare. While I know that it isn't a complete judge of total population it is worth noting that psa has graded 18000 1948 Bowmans and 600 1945-46 Caramelos. Would love to hear your thoughts and see your cards.
