This image of Crawford I believe is found in E90-1, E92 (though I don't know if it is available in Dockman, Croft Cocoa, and Croft black, blue, and red), E101, E102, E105, and E106, as well as T216. I know there are a lot of cards that the images are shared by the T216 images, some like this Speaker are in, say E90-1, but not in the others. What I am trying to see is if there are E series where the image is harder to find, and therefore more expensive, or are the T216 images normally going to be tougher and more valuable than the E series equivalents. I am guessing that most cards would be more rare and most valuable with a Croft's Red back, though when you factor in VE and MINO, I don't know if that holds true across the board. I also know I haven't included D303s, because that is another story. And keep on showing cards, they are awesome.

Ed, I can confirm the Crawford exists for all of the sets you have listed (as well as the E92 Nadja). I think you are right that in most cases the E92 Red Crofts will be more rare and more valuable than any T216 including a VE or Mino. However, I think this has more to do with the overall population difference than a player to player comparison. I am only aware of 15 red crofts in total where SGC alone has graded at least 35 VE.
