Chuck, the Breisch Williams set is fantastic. I remember first reading about the set in my Encyclopedia of Baseball Cards. I went to go find out what they sold for, and the sticker shock was a tad overwhelming. I think I'll have to admire them from a distance. Still, it's a real nice change of pace to see these immortals in their Sunday best, isn't it?

The E-107 American Caramel set has become one of my favorite candy sets, and that's one of my three favorite cards from the Grey Eagle (the others being the T3 Turkey Red, and his T206). But if I were to pick a favorite card from that set, it would have to be the Willie Keeler (the pink back variety). It's actually on my short list of cards to buy once I begin collecting here again in the next month or two.
