The Witmor candy set was produced concurrently with the E121 Series of 80 set in 1921, and actually it was from the earlier production of that set as the later updates (the "ends in eighty" cards made near the end of the season/World Series) were not included in the set. It is undoubtedly a 1921 set. In 1922 the American Caramel Co. produced the Series of 120 and the E120 set. I also believe the E122 set was produced in 1921 and not 1922 but that one will be tougher to prove as they just reused images from the early print runs of E121 Series of 80 and re-photographed them, and I guess they could have done that in 1922 but like I said it too is likely a 1921 issue. The Gassler's set is an interesting one because it is from late 1921 and was produced concurrently with the late Series of 80 runs (end in eighty cards)and the Koester's Bread set as it includes those New York players that first show up in the time line around the time of the 1921 World Series.
