What Is Your Favorite Caramel Set? Why?
Posted By: Paul
I mentioned in a post a couple months ago that I'm a postcard collector who recently figured out that Caramels are beautiful too. I've picked up about a dozen E90-1, & I'm starting to look at other sets. What I would like to know from the caramel collectors here is, what is your favorite caramel set & why? Thanks! |

I've always favored E103s for a few reasons. I appreciate the relative scarcity of the set, and I like the fact -- don't ask me why -- that the issuer's name, Williams Caramel, is on the fronts of the cards. And I like the blank backs because paper loss isn't as big of a detractor (at least to me). |

E95 -- it's the first caramel set I completed. The Cobb is a gem--one of the best looking cards of all-time. |

E93 Standard Caramel is my favorite because it is the best-looking set IMHO and is full of HOFs. Here are a few samples... |

i personally feel the E90-1 have amazing background images, with more interest than the monochromatics... |

the e97s have been my favorite for 6-7 years. you can only take so many wagner portraits or cobb leaping poses...i like the lesser name players and learn about them a bit, and they have some great poses. this year i've transitioned into the tougher black/white variation of the set and so far have 11 and slowly accumulating them (please contact me if you have any available). |

E90-1 American Caramel by a landslide for me. The challenge of finishing this 120 card |

If it wasn't for the backs, I'd pursue the e90-1 set. I like the slightly primitive and colorful fronts as well as the increasing levels of scarcity of cards (I copied and saved the scarcity list that Tony Andrea posted a few months back). But the back design, even when I was kid, just bugs me. If ever there was a series that belongs glued into a scrapbook, it's the e90-1. |

e104-1's are my favorite. Not sure why, but I like writting on my cards. The "World Champions" overprint is very cool. |

My favorite caramel set is not even listed as a caramel set. It is the mislabeled W503 set which is actually, in my opinion, a caramel set. It has pictures in the set not found in any other set. |

I was just going through my E type cards and my favorite one is my E90-3 Solly Hofman. I liked the look of the Cubs uniforms on this set. |

Scott, you must have me mixed up with someone else, I didn't say anything about the E90-1 set, in fact I have completed the set minus Joe Jackson and it is a nice set to collect. (Although not in the same class as the E94) |

Lots of great responses & beautiful cards posted. Thank you very much. I don't think I can pick just one or two sets to collect. Probably will try to pickup a couple from as many of the sets as I can. All of the caramel sets seem enticing. I suppose I'm hooked..... |
