E94 is hands down the best E-Set out there by far. IMO. Superior images to other sets, classic Cobb pose, great Wagner pose, Lajoie hanging ball, etc., and they got the Cy Young card correct.

But e93 has Cy Young batting which is just an awesome quirk.

In my opinion, E94 easily beats E93, which in turn crushes E98.

I am partial to E92s, but I am a back guy.

I agree with this for the most part...I used to have a set of e94...now just a murray color run...great, unique set! E93 is next for me...then I'd take e92 and all the diff varietals. E98 is the least preferred to me...mostly due to the bst. I have a color run of jenningses.

That is a great card, and the Chase, Waddell, Ames, Phillipe, Jones are nice too. E93 still has an Eddie Collins that isn't Eddie Collins and some strange color combos. The E93 has Matty but the E94 has Crawford, Speaker, and Lajoie.

It would be fun to compare the poses of the HOFers between the two sets. The Cobb is the same as well as the Chance, E94 Wagner is better, the e94 Lajoie is amazing, E94 Crawford pose, doesn't get any better that, and the Speaker is one of his rare color candy card images.

I'd love to put together a 30 card E-Set combining the best images from E93, 94, and 98.

Great idea. Also, I didn’t think that was Collins but never out my finger on it. The gent looks heavier. Who is it?

Could someone enlighten me as to the difficulty/rarity of a color run of E98 Wagners from easiest to toughest. Tks.

Red is easiest, then Green, building a Master Set over the last 18 months I've seen two Blues and two Oranges available including the current one at HA. I would say those are the two tougher colors but there are specific player/color combos that are difficult.
