The American Caramel E90-1 issue is sometimes referred to as the T206 of caramel issues, and has been dubbed "The Kraken" in some quarters due to the challenges of collecting the 120 subjects found within. The set was issued with a stick of caramel that, as one might imagine, led to condition issues which plague the set. This gorgeous example exhibits some staining on the front, as well as some light foxing on the back.

So good they named the major's top pitching award after him, Cy Young was at the tail end of his Hall Of Fame career when American Caramel caught him with the Boston Americans in what is the candy card equivalent of T206. E90-1 is one of a batch of interrelated caramel card issues encompassing over a half a dozen sets that used a pool of common images, but this is the only pose of Young with Boston in that grouping. He's depicted as a member of the Cleveland Americans in all of the sister issues, having been dealt to them before the start of the 1909 season, making this a doubly desirable pose.

A rich, red background dominates this SGC 1 example, which exhibits some corner rounding. There is some color loss and ink fading along the left edge of the card, but it is likely from being handled and not from age or deterioration, as the colors remain bold everywhere else. A light crease runs diagonally from the left edge to the right middle edge, further explaining the grade.
