The Cobb letter I saw back in the mid 80's was amazing. And knowing more now about both Cobb and Stump, probably entirely fake.
Cobb letterhead, green ink, first page a nice letter about an autograph request, second page the nasty racist version Stump seems to have created.
For years it was on the list of collectibles I regretted not buying. Having learned that the Cobb we "know" probably was a fabrication by a person who made unsupportable claims if not outright fakes has made me move it into the "probably glad I didn't buy that" category.
I don't know enough to comment on the current letter, but would recommend as others have getting it reframed with the proper materials if it can't be figured out that the current ones are archival.
