Another great group of vintage cards from the "Yahtzee Box Find" is presented here. The American Caramel E120 (Series of 240) was issued in 1922 and is universally recognized as one of the most classic sets from the era. According to the PSA's online "Card Facts" archives, "the set is evenly represented by 15 players from each of the 16 teams broken down alphabetically with their respective league. It was one of the first sets produced using two distinct motifs depending on the league: sepia-toned cards for American League players and a greenish-blue hue for National League subjects. An action shot of the athlete is displayed within an oval frame-like design; his name and team affiliation appear at the bottom border."
There are 30 different players listed in this lot. Every card has pencil marks on the back from the original collector. We have decided not to erase them out of respect for newly discovered collection and to keep them in their original state.
