E90-1, The Kraken (AKA The E-Monster) - post your collection progress

[familytoad]

You know that you have “arrived” when you are mentioned in the LOTG catalog.

The lot #227 listing points out that the offered E90-1 Matty comes from “the most popular and widely-collected of all the caramel issues”
You know…the Kraken!

So the phrase has become part of the hobby lexicon.
Who knew?

Oh , I still need three cards. If any collectors have released their Kraken and wanted to move the Wagner (batting) or Miller (sunset) … we should discuss

Cool! The beastly set is getting the recognition it so craves. The pursuit of the E90-1 series should have a new, copyrighted acronym moniker - LOTKG (Love of the Kraken Game).

I thought I'd start the year with a Kraken Point update.
Thanks to a B/S/T from a member this Plank brings me to 160.

Congrats on the Plank pickup. I have always liked the Plank card for its different, unique pose/look.

Picked up Ed Walsh at Christmas, so 113 down and 8 to go. Should put me at 182.

I always thought the E90-1 Walsh looked like it should be in the E90-3 set. Congrats, and both you and riggs have been updated.

I had to do a double take after seeing I'd not added a card since last April. But that is indeed correct -- these final few I need have been tough and I'm not yet ready to succumb to the high prices on eBay. Still fighting, though!
