I have never seen them be presented that way but they were distributed by the same company, as far as I know.

E104's are all portraits with blue captions
this link breaks it down easier than I can explain it

The E92 Nadjas have the same fronts (images and black caption) as some E90-1 and the other E92 sets., thats why they arent grouped with E104 I believe

Ive always thought the blank back (anonymous) E104s did not come in Nadja products, but maybe some other unknown candy/bread/tobacco ??

I really like the E92 Nadja issue; it's nice to to read comments about some of the less collected sets.

I've played around a bit with trying to collect a higher-grade St. Louis team set for about a year. I've been able to collect the Bailey, Bresnahan, Ellis, & both Stones (pictures of my cards attached). I know there are currently a several more (Phelps, and Wallace) available for higher buy-it-now prices on eBay than I want to pay. But I haven't seen higher grade examples of the (2) Hartzells, (2) Howells, the Oakes and O'Hara cards come up for sale since I started looking. I consider any graded E-card over EX higher grade.

I know there was a large group of St. Louis cards discovered a while back and many of the nice looking St. Louis Nadjas come from that find, but I wonder if anyone knows if it was only certain St. Louis players that were found, and if I'm looking in vain for nice examples the players that I have not already purchased.

I've also noted that it is virtually impossible to find higher grade examples of the non-St. Louis players. The Dots Miller card looks sharp, but there is tape on the back. A few months ago several of these non-St. Louis cards came up for sale on eBay, I regret that I didn't bid on more of them.

Best regards,

Joe

We have had a couple of threads on this and there are only 58 Nadja's confirmed. Lou Lipset and BCD have seen a Cobb. Pete Calderon and BCD have seen Evers. Tim Newcomb has a Knabe. Bescher, Wild Bill Donovan, Larry Doyle with bat & Zimmerman have no graded examples and no one replied that they had seen examples.
