Item Description
2x3.25". The 1921-23 National Caramel (E220) baseball set consists of 121 cards issued between 1921 and 1923. Each unnumbered card features a black-and-white player likeness within a white border on the card front. The player's full name, team name, position, and league also appear within the image area. The National Caramel baseball set is generally considered scarce and difficult to complete.
Charles Benjamin "Babe" Adams was an American right-handed pitcher in Major League Baseball (MLB) from 1906 to 1926 who spent nearly his entire career with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Noted for his outstanding control, his career average of 1.29 walks per 9 innings pitched was the second lowest of the 20th century; his 1920 mark of 1 walk per 14.6 innings was a modern record until 2005. He shares the Pirates' franchise record for career victories by a right-hander (194), and holds the team mark for career shutouts (47); from 1926 to 1962, he held the team record for career games pitched (481). Babe Adams was a two time World Series Champion in 1909 and 1925.
