David Shean

David Shean. On the cardboard side, his vintage presence spans E92 Croft's Candy, E92 Croft's Cocoa, E92 Dockman & Sons Gum, and E92 Nadja Caramels — a multi-issue footprint that places him among the more cataloged subjects of the deadball-era caramel and tobacco runs. His caramel-card appearance situates him within the early-twentieth-century E-card issues, the confectionery premiums that ran parallel to the tobacco sets of the same period. For collectors, his E92 Croft's Candy appearance is the principal tangible record of his playing days, surviving in the same checklist universe that documents the bigger names of his contemporaries.
