Hello everyone,

I'm new to this post, and first off I would like to say that I've been very impressed with the quality of information and the level of communication I've seen here.

My question is this: What are some of the earliest tobacco and/or caramel sets that contain player statistics?

I originally started collecting baseball cards in the early 1980's, and I was drawn to the statistics found on the back of the cards. I would like to find more vintage sets that contain statistics similar to the type of information found in the t205 (Gold Borders) and t201 (Mecca Double Folders) sets.

I love pinatas. You get to beat the crap of something and get rewarded with candy.
