Asking $3,800.
For sale is this nice complete set of 1909 E95 Philadelphia Caramel Company baseball cards, which is loaded with HOF-ers. If the Wagner and Plank in the T206 set are out of your budget this set makes a great alternative. The E95 set has great images that were, unlike many other E-issues, not re-used in other issues. Unlike Tobacco cards that were unpacked by adults, Caramel cards were usually in the possession of kids and many got destroyed, especially because the E95 set was printed on thinner paper. This makes highly graded specimens very rare. Every card in this set has been graded, the unweighted average grade of this near complete set is 2.32 Good+. SGC does not add qualifiers to grades, but some of the cards have pencil marks on the back and I have indicated that with (mk) behind the grade. The 25 cards in this complete set have the following individual grades:

1. Honus Wagner (HOF) SGC Fair 1.5 Very nice front but some paper loss on the back.
2. Nick Maddox SGC Good 2
3. Fred Merkle SGC Good+ 2.5 The back of this card is centered to the bottow (cut through the "Camden, New Jersey")
4. Cy Morgan SGC VG-EX 4
5. Chief Bender (HOF) SGC Good 2
6. Harry Krause SGC VG-EX+ 4.5
7. Art Devlin SGC VG 3 (mk) Beautiful front but back has all player names crossed out (used as checklist)
