Default My list of E90 set "toughies"....what's yours ?

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 in completing a set of 120 cards.

1st Most difficult group......alphabetically listed

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

2nd most difficult group......alphabetically listed

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

3rd most difficult group......alphabetically listed

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

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.
