Default E90-1.....and the "Dirty Thirty" theory

Posted By: Ted Zanidakis

I looked at my old records dating back to the mid 1980's when I acquired my first E90-1 card....Mitchell (Cinci).
Here is the ranking of rarity according to my experience collecting these cards, as I noted them in my records.

1st Most difficult group......

Clarke (Pitt)
Duffy
Graham (Bost-NL)
Karger
Mitchell (Cinci)
Speaker
Stahl
Sweeney (Bost-NL)
Walsh
CYoung (Clev)

2nd most difficult group......

Bemis
Demmitt
Joss (pitching)......horiz.
Keeler (NY-NL)......horiz.
Lobert
McLean
Richie
Shean
Upp
Willis

3rd most difficult group......


Bescher
Bransfield (pink)
B. Brown..............horiz.
Hartzell (bat)
Gibson (back view)
Hall.....................horiz.
Keeler (red)
Overall
Seigle..................horiz.
Tenney

Finally, Wagner (throwing) is a tough card; however, I think he was issued in the 1909 series (and, not the last
series).

This list of 30 cards is based on my anecdotal experience. And, these cards were all most likely included on the
last sheet, which was issued in the Spring of 1910.

Obviously, this list is subject to debate....? ?
