petecldIt's a little sad this set doesn't get a little more respect. Jay is right, it isn't a pretty set but it was the first set of Baseball players since the E107 set and the success of this set kicked off the "golden age" of E-cards - 1909-1911.
Set "A" gets some respect and collector interest for the reason that Patrick mentioned, the faces do match the names on the card. The "B:" and "C" sets are collected mostly by the hard-core collectors but done seem to generate much interest from newer collectors.
As mentioned before, if you want a HoF player for your collection and don't have a lot of $$$ to spend this is a good set to look at.
