Here’s something else to consider, easily some of the most kept over the years cards are that of Cobb, especially the “red” background.

So if it was presented to the masses right in Cobb’s very own backyard (superstar of the day, Georgia’s native son) in “Ty Cobb” brand smoking tobacco? Why do so few exist?

As someone stated before there are other regional type issues that are scarce but not to the point of only 12 of one player and design? That never added up for me, and a card of Cobb to boot, not some printing variation of a common ballplayer or minor league star in a huge subset…
