Default Caramel card scarcity

Posted By: robert a

There's a semi-obvious reason why some of these candy issues are more uncommon than others.

Philadelphia Caramels must've been very popular. The evidence is in the numbers. The company not only sponsered E95/E96, but also other non-sports issues. I believe far more product was sold over a bigger area then some of the other candies.

Standard Caramel must have been midrange. At least they could afford to put their name on the cards.

As for E97s, Lozenges don't sound very appealing for kids.

E98s and E94s might've been used by different products, hence the anonymity.
They apparently weren't used as much.
