E90-3 (1910) American Caramel

Caramel E90-3 Chick Gandil
Set Description

Caramel cards in general are much rarer than tobacco cards of the era. Because they were issued with caramels one card per package and sold to children (as opposed to being sold to adults with tobacco), they also tend to survive in a much lower grade.

American Caramel Co. issued this 20 card set in 1910. The set consists of 11 Cub players and 9 White Sox; the front is a color lithograph similar to the (E90-1) with different poses. The backs are different then the other E90’s that is now says Chicago and no longer has 100 subjects and in it place is “All the star players”.
