Offbeat 1921 E121 American Caramel Set of 80 (Smoky) Joe Wood of the Cleveland Indians. During the last year of his life, this low-grade original crossed paths with the aged hurler. Instead of lending his signature, Wood placed a dark stamp reading (At 95 I apply this stamp personally. Joe Wood). The fireballer passed away in July 1985 and this caramel relic might be one of the last cards he ever touched. This 103-year-old card was submitted to SGC but could not be graded due to the back stamp. Opening Bid $150.
