SGC doesn't have too many graded, what about PSA?

Brad- This is my favorite caramel set by far. Nice Baker. It seems to be a tough e104 to acquire.

Both the Collins & Plank are graded PSA 3mk. They both have a "Swift" stamp on the back. The stamp has been discussed in past threads. It would seem that the stamp originated in Philly, but some thought NY. I actually prefer the stamp. It adds some character and intriguing history to what would be a blank backed card. Can someone please put up a scan of the stamp? Thanks

Bruce- would you say you have seen more e104's or d359's while you were collecting the sub-set? I have more d359's and have seen far more d359's than e104-1's.

Dan, I would agree. I would guess the ratio of D359 to E104 overprints I encountered was about 3 to 1, maybe more. As you know, I gave up trying to acquire the overprint fronts with any of the possible backs when I got stuck on 13 out of 18 for quite a while.

How many of your e104's had the "Swift" stamp on the back? I went back and read the previous threads about the stamp, but nothing definitive. I have 3-4 with the stamp and 2-3 with out. I have never seen an e104-1 with the stamp and with out the "World Champions" overprint. The "World Champion" card must have been solely printed for Philadelphians. I would imagine no one else other than Philly would care. That would most likely put the "Swift" store in Philly. It could have been a collector too, but there are so many e104's with the stamp that I doubt they came from an individual.


I got this from an old thread.

Both of my E104-1 overprints had the Swift stamp.
