American Caramel was the undisputed heavyweight of Caramel cards created in the first quarter of the 20th century. Their sets were detailed and, in some cases colorful, representations of the subjects they portrayed. The nonsports sets are typically 20-25 cards in length such as this E49 Wild West Set.
