Great thread and a great set and well deserves the treatment it has received here. Bravo. I don’t currently collect it but felt like I lived the journeys of many through these posts and pics.
Enjoyed all 11 pages.

Edited to add I used to own the Cobb but sold a dozen years ago.
Shame.

Great achievement Jeff, congrats! You indicated that you have 120 of 120 cards. I assume this perhaps means that you do not have the Dots Miller with sunset variation? The Miller sunset card is a relatively new discovery, or at least became better known, in the past 8-10 years. I believe it was possibly first identified by our own ullmandds. It makes the set, at least in the Eyes of the Kraken, complete at 121 cards.

Let me know what card you do not have, and I will adjust your number accordingly. For example if it is the Dots Miller sunset card (which has a value of 3), your number would officially be 247.

I do have the sunset variation, acquired it raw from Anson awhile back.

Below is a list of the 1 point tougher commons/more popular Hof'ers that I believe could have been identified as 2 point cards, based upon their scarcity and popularity.

The list was culled from this post about E90-1 perceived scarcities over the years in another thread:

2 Frank Baker
2 Harry Bemis
2 Mordecai Brown
2 Wally Clement
2 Eddie Collins
2 Sam Crawford
2 George Davis
2 Ray Demmitt
2 Addie Joss (portrait)
2 Willie Keeler (portrait - pink)
2 Paddy O'Connor
2 Johhny Seigle

Andy and Otis: Congratulations on adding Mitchells to your collections. Those are both very nice looking examples.

Anson: I love the batting pose of Wagner!

The above was from post 316 on this thread. So Jon's two E90-1 cards (not a bad two-only card combo) would qualify under this revolutionary revision scheme for 3 Kraken points, but alas the official tally shall instead be 2. I think you should start thinking about which card to add to make it an E-Monster trio.

Brian, isn't the Keeler red portrait considered scarcer and more valuable than the pink? Tks John

I picked up the Dougherty and Karger.

My score is up to 242, thanks. 119/121.

Hi John, you are correct, the Keeler red portrait is much more difficult than the Keeler pink portrait. In Kraken land, the red is worth 5, and the pink 1. My potential (but not implemented) revision I quoted above would have bumped the pink version to 2, because Keeler is a more popular hall of famer. But pink Keeler anguishly languishes at 1.

Brian, sadly not the red version, but I did pick up the pink last week.

Nice...just the Wagner batting and the George Davis left. You have been officially updated.

Next to last update requested....new number is 243. Only seeking the elusive Mitchell to satisfy the Kraken.

I’ve only got 3, but I love this set! I don’t plan on ever making a run at the entire E90-1, as I have my hands full and wallet emptied by the other monster. However, there are about 10 cards in this set that I absolutely love, Nap and Keeler are next on my list.

Enjoy the weekend,
Bob

Welcome John...like T206 and T205, E90-1 is another infectious card collecting disease that you might spend several fun years trying to cure. You have made the list, and I expect to see you rise up on it over time.

A ragged sunset puts me at 220. I need Wagner fielding and Jackson, so I'll probably stay there. Chasing the Kraken has been a lot of fun.
