Posted By: <b>Scott Elkins</b><p>David Vintage sold one on eBay last year - SGC 10. I cannot remember the exact price, but it was around $3k. From my experience, the blue variation is about as tough as a Nadja E92 (regular Nadja player - not the easy St. Louis players).

Posted By: <b>BcD</b><p>They do NOT usually come blank backed but if you get a blank backed E-92 I am certain there is a much greater percentage it came from Croft's Candy~.<br />In 1985 I purchased a pile of them from Rick Kohl and several duplicates in which blank backs were common.................but only common to the group he found in Croft's Candy. ALL the other E-92 back variations did no have nearly as many blank backs- Here is a scan of a few I purchased then- They were 4200 each and the lowest grade for one came back Ex/Mt 6/80.<br /><br /><br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1121322176.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Peter Thomas</b><p>in the 26 Croft's Candy cards that I have which is 15%. I have made no particular effort to go after blue backs just cards that I am missing - still 24 to go and the years are flying by.
