From Heritage: "Of the 30 players from the E98 series the collection offered 25 players in duplicate, a trio represented by a single example and two players (Lajoie and Walsh) mysteriously not represented."

"in duplicate" doesn't portray the volume of the find

Are they going to sell them all in this auction? That set's not going cheap, eek

I think they are worth a premium. This set was worth a premium to me, particularly knowing that it was pulled from packs by Lionel Carter in 1933 and it is the set that began his 60+ year love of cards and this hobby.
