Caramelcard's Vintage Collection
Welcome to my collection site!
I hope that you enjoy the scans as much as I enjoy the cards.

I'm a set collector currently concentrating on T207 and a few other early, color issues.

The cards are NOT FOR SALE unless noted, but check back frequently because I do often list cards for sale or trade.
Thanks for looking!

Feel free to email me at robertadesso@hotmail.com

I always enjoy hearing from other collectors.

This is the perfect set for me.

E90-3 AMERICAN CARAMEL
7. E90-3 AMERICAN CARAMEL  (March 8, 2005)
This CUBS VS. SOX set is one I've been after for many years and I've finally completed it!  It's a lot of fun to chase after some of the scarcer cards in the set. Cards in nicer condition are almost impossible to find.

Every card could be possible with a color variation which is a result of the lack of quality control throughout the printing process.  I've personally seen printing variations with Cole, Payne, Smith, and Tinker.

I've found a few cards to be quite a bit tougher than others in the set.  

Tougher cards include:

Hahn, Chance, Payne, Archer, and Gandil

Easier cards include:

Dougherty, Schulte, Blackburne, Steinfeldt, Sheckard and Walsh

PART I of one of the most completeable caramel sets out there.  This set is loaded with hall of famers and popular players of the time period.  
The text on the back of each card is in black print.
