HOFers per set--Team building exercise!

[familytoad]

Forgive me for being lazy and not counting these myself but this could also be fun *and* informative...and serve as a team building exercise

How about a list of the mainstream T and E sets (or others) ...and count of how many Hall Of Famers are in each set ? (count multiple poses individually but not backs)

I can start with a couple sets some of which are certainly debatable...(It's not generally too tough to find a debate on this board so let's do it!)

E210 York Caramel Type 1= 31/60 or ~52%
T206 White Borders = 76/524 or ~14%
E95 Philadelphia Caramel =10/25 or ~40%
T205 Gold Borders=
T204 Ramly=
1933 DeLong=
1933 Goudey=
1934 Goudey=
E121 American Caramel=
1934-36 Diamond Stars=
E93 Standard Caramel=

The list could get long and these sets are obviously just a small portion of our beloved collectable sets.
What do you all think?

E92 Dockmans = 11/40 = 27.5%
E97 Briggs = 3/30 (if you count Young as Cy and not Irv) = 10%

Cheers,

Could be wrong, but I believe there are 30 HOFers in the Diamond Stars set.

[Robextend]

E93: 18/30 = 60%
DeLong: 15/24 = 62.5%

Edited to add one of my favorite Pre-War sets E91

E91A: 12/33 = 36%
E91B: 11/33 = 33%
E91C: 6/33 = 18%

T231 Fans Cigarettes- 50% HOF'ers......

[Rob D.]

16 of the 30 cards, 53 percent, in the 1933 Butter Cream set are Hall of Famers.

Thanks for all of the help guys! I will try re-editing the list when I get home from work.

I'm glad that you find this list useful. Someday I hope to type out all of the HOFers by name as well...but baby steps, man...baby steps!

As I mentioned earlier the original thread is 10 years old.
Since then, I believe the only prewar player to be added to the HOF is :


Deacon White



I could be mistaken.

I previously looked it up, and unless I am mistaken I believe you are not mistaken.

1925 Holland Creameries World Champion Washington Senators - 4 of 18 cards = 22.2%.

The four HOFers are Wajo, Sam Rice, Goose Goslin & Bucky Harris. I need the next-to-impossible Roger Peckinpaugh SP card to complete this set.
