E90-1 Dots Miller "sunset" variation

[ullmandds]

Interesting...the huggins and scott auction has a lot of misc prewar that contains a rare red keeler portrait e90-1 as well as 3 Miller fielding e90-1 cards...all with sunsets. Perhaps the millers w/sunsets were a later run?

This thread made me realize how nice looking this card is so I just picked one up.

Peter,
That's an interesting point and would be a good explanation as to why it seems the sunset variation of the E90-1 is a lot less prevalent. I have been searching quite a bit and have only found scans of three of them with the sunset that I was able to confirm as E90-1's. On the other hand, I've noted 50+ of the non-sunset version.

That may also be a clue as to the timing of the printing of the other sets which contain this pose and apparently ALL feature only the sunset version.

Peter,
Great collection of Millers! When they are laid out like that, it's hard not to conclude that the E90-1 is entirely different artwork altogether. There are so many variances, with the lack of sunset, blue shadow, mountains in the background, different colored cap, shoes, glove, etc. All other sets seem to be pretty much identical in these aspects.
