E90-1 Series Mystery solved?

[Archive]

Posted By: Scott Fandango

it is well accepted that the E90-1 American Caramel Series of 100 Subjects (really 120) were issued in three "series" yet its not conclusive which cards were issued in what series....

i believe the answer is found in the corners of each card....

some cards appear to have right angle corners, whereas others appear to have rounded corners (regardless of card condition)...

for instance Howell, Dooin, Jennings, Heitmuller, Sweeney, Bender, Chance and others have right angle corners (traditional sheet cuts) whereas Ellis, Overall Summers, Mcquillan, Bliss, Barry, Jordan, Joss portrait and others, have a more rounded corner (a brand new card was not meant to have right angles)...

if they were cut using different methods, wouldnt that provide the series?

any thoughts?
