I have seen an example of every card listed in this thread, (even the 1918 Crawford), at least once. I have NEVER seen the 1920 Crawford.

Posted By: <b>Adam J. Baxter</b><p>I don't remember the story with Bohen exactly. The Yellowhorse is popular primarily because he was Native American and the card seems to be scarce. The Yellowhorse is one of the key cards in the 1923 set along with Waner.

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>I googled up the Bohen card and found that it was pulled very early in the run in 1911 because he had not signed with a team yet. Just one of the rare cards.

Posted By: <b>Judge Dred (Fred)</b><p>Dan,<br /><br />The Halla is just one of those really neat poses that a lot of collectors like. Not too many horizontals in the set... maybe that's the answer... it's the only horizontal...
