The E3 American Caramel Navy Caramels is a (21) card set picturing battleships and other ships of the early 20th century. Most of the ships were involved in the Spanish American War and were part of the "White Squadron". The set also pictures the President's Yacht "Mayflower" which was also involved in the Spanish American War before being recommissioned as the presidential yacht around 1905 by Teddy Roosevelt. The set was likely issued sometime in the period between 1905 and 1910 by American Caramel.
This near complete set of (20/21) E3 American Caramel Battleships is missing USS Pennsylvania to be complete. The cards are in a very consistent GVG to VG condition with just honest wear on the front and back and at the corners and borders. Great set missing a single card.
