Description: 1922 E120 American Caramel - Jimmy Ring, Philadelphia Phillies- SGC 3On the Set - Manufactured by the American Caramel Co. in 1922, the American Caramel E120 Baseball Card Set is one of the iconic candy card collections. This set includes 240 unnumbered baseball cards, featuring 15 players from each team. Each card measures 2" by 3¼" and showcases a tinted action shot of a player within a decorative oval frame. The player’s name, position, team and league are displayed at the bottom of the card. Unique frame designs distinguish each team’s cards, with American League players printed on beige/tan sepia paper stock and National League players on green paper stock. The back of each card features a checklist for the respective team. Despite its popularity and comprehensive nature, the 1922 E120 American Caramel Set is known for its delicate construction, resulting in many cards surviving in less than pristine condition. On the Player - James Joseph Ring (1895-1965) was an MLB pitcher who played for the Cincinnati Reds (1917–1920), Philadelphia Phillies (1921–1925, 1928), New York Giants (1926), and St. Louis Cardinals (1927). In 1919, Ring was a World Series champion with the Reds. Wins are not always a true measure of a pitcher's value, as evidenced by Ring's career record of 118 wins against 149 losses. He played for some struggling teams, particularly during his five seasons with the Phillies. Only in 1923 did Ring manage a winning record with the Phillies, achieving 18 wins and 16 losses, for a team that finished the season with just 50 wins and 104 losses. Despite the poor performance of his teams, Ring often outperformed expectations, demonstrating his skill and resilience even without the support of dominant teams like the 1920s Yankees.
