From the company that offered the long run of Zeenuts, which featured PCL players, the set known as E135 offered 200 subjects but switched focus to the National and American Leagues. Produced at a time when few sets were being issued, it gave collectors and baseball fans on the West Coast a look at players they had only read about in the newspapers or the annual Spading guides. "Chic" Gandil was still a couple of years away from being the point man for the gamblers betting against the 1919 Black Sox and found himself with his contract sold to Chicago for the 1917 season, where he would go on to claim a World Series title. His infamy has led to perennial collector interest and this SGC 1 has some bleed through from the reverse, showcasing the fragile and thin stock used for these. Rounding corners, one peeling, are also seen, as is a crease at the upper right. The reverse looks well-inked, of course.
