1922 E120 American Caramel question?
 
Hi everyone,
I was hoping someone might be able to help me with something. I have a card which appears to be a 1922 E120 American Caramel Elmer Myers, Boston Americans. It is in pretty rough shape and, judging by images I've seen of other cards from the set, might be trimmed. However, the thing that concerns me the most is that the back is blank, and I've seen examples from the set that have text on the back. Are there blank backs in this set, or do I have a fake? Also, what is the card stock like on the cards. This one feels thin.

Thanks in advance for your help!
John

It's a W573, the blank back version of E120.

Black and White or Sepia?
 
Is the front picture black and white, or sepia toned? The blank backed black and white ones are definitely W573, whereas the sepia toned blank back ones are unclassified (I have several, just never have heard anything about them). They are either blank back E120's, or some variation of the W573 issue.

I have a few of the blank backed, sepia toned cards. They seem to be on thin stock, but I don't think that they are skinned E120's.

Thanks for the responses! It is black and white, so it sounds like a W573. Looks like mystery solved! Thanks!
