The poses found in this set are identical to ones used in E101/E102 and E106.

Though the same poses are used for all 4 of the different brands found on the backs. Dockman & Sons are the most common brand name found but have only been found with 40 different player/poses.

Some collectors collect all the brands as one set. Others, like myself, feel they are 4 different sets and collect them as such.

Of the 10 poses not found with Dockman backs, 6 are Philadelphia players. Dockman & Sons was from Baltimore, Croft's & Allen and Montague & Co. (Croft's Cocoa) are from Philadelphia so it isn't surprising they would want more players from that area.

Considering the company locations, I can understnad why Dockman might pass on the extra philadelphia players but why wouldn't Dockman include Ty Cobb with it's set or even Eddie Collins? Any and all opinions are welcome.

Of the 12 St. Louis players found only with Nadja backs, most are discoveries made during the 1970s - early 1990s. Oddly there is one St. Louis player (O'Hara) found with all 4 different brands. All of the St. Louis players that are only found with Nadja backs they use the same poses found in the E90.1 set. They are easy to find in the E90.1 set. There are 4 other St. Louis players found in the E90.1 set that could possibly be found with a Nadja back, since Nadja is a Missouri company - Bliss, Criger, Demmitt, and Willis.

It has been my experience that of the 40 poses found with Dockman backs the second half of the players/poses (Lajoie to Zimmerman) were a little easier to find for me then the first 20 player/poses. This experience has held true for Croft's & Allen and Croft's Cocoa brands as well. Coincidence?
