Default TY COBB Celluloid Watch Fob

Enclosed are pics of a Ty Cobb Watch Fob in my collection. I have never seen another and was wondering if anyone has, or have some idea on value also. Thanks!

Paul,

That is a fantastic watch fob. I have also never seen another one like it. I have seen another Cobb fob, but it was more of a portrait shot. Could you post a close-up image of Cobb on yours, would love to see it.

As for value, I haven't a clue. I'm sure others will chime in though.

Mike

Simply stunning piece and one I have never seen before. Cobb collectors would fall over themselves to acquire it. When you consider the scarcity factor I would not surprised to see it demand $2,000 plus in REA.

Thanks for posting!

Default LARGER Ty Cobb Fob Jpg

I figured out why my pics are too small on all my posts here. Now it is fixed so you can see everything up close & in greater detail (hopefully).


Not many people commented on this so I am assuming the hobby doesn't have much if any info on it??

It appears this is the first example people here have ever seen-- which explains why no one is posting much info about it.
