The 1914 CJ set is very odd in many respects. I don't know how the set is regarded by a typical pre war collector, or by any of longtime collectors on the board.
I know everyone likes how they look, but it's not like other sets.

I mean, it's hard to be picky about condition because cardboard is so thin. Stains on nearly every card. Not a lot of cards available to begin with, despite eBay and the internet making most all cards from most all sets plentiful, or at least available. Is the 1914 set viewed as sort of a cult-like following thing, but just not a "mainstream" set because of all the obstacles? I'd love to know what longtime collectors think...
