Unfortunately, many pre-war sets failed to include some of the biggest stars in the game. For example, Walter Johnson hardly has any caramel cards at all! Besides his Cracker Jack and 1920's cards (e121, Neilson's Chocolate, etc) I can't think of ANY Johnson e cards. I guess the only explanation for this is that he played for subpar Washington teams his whole career. Here are a few cards that I think would have been awesome, but for some reason, were never produced: |

I remember, when I had the '53 Bowman set, every last card of it, how I wished there were a J. Robinson. With their great, great photography, I'm sure it would have been wonderful. |

I would have loved to see a Louis Sockalexis card, but since Cameo Pepsin and the 1899 Sporting News would be the only sets around that time they would have to do. There is also speculation that a 13 year old pitched for Philadelphia in 1888 and an Old Judge card of him would have been nice. |

1890 Old Judge Cy Young. Since 1890 cards were basically reissues of 1889 cards with team changes this would have been impossible, but an interesting thought none-the-less. |

A picture's worth a bunch of words--unless it's an ebay scan. |

I'd have to agree Andy's pictures are among the best cards that should have been. I also would have liked to see an E107 Burkett and an E107 or W600 Frank Selee. I'd also like to see a W600 Burkett or Branch Rickey. Both of these actually were issued, or at least available for purchase, but as far as I know none have survived. |

I collect T202s--and there are 2 or 3 of him in that set--always paired with Speaker. Lately, I've been trying to pick up the T205s that have cards that Are NOT in the T202 set--didn't realize it went both ways! |
