If that's not an April fools joke it's very impressive. Way out of my league.

Nice, but why do you say complete?
Are those the only Cobb's you want?

As I stated in another recent thread, I have no attraction to beaters.


But seriously, that is a serious financial investment! I sure hope you enjoy them!

thanks!

i'll get pics of the backs tonight...

Although a Ty Cobb back would be nice to add to that picture, the back game is not one I want to pursue...

My sense is that the prices should come down on the Ty Cobb Back cards, not go up... now that there are more of them.

Anyway, I'll be patient.

Justin, it's about time that you posted them. Great cards.

What about the T205?

And just out of curiosity, which one is your favorite?

Default I would like to know where are the creases, writing, stains and rounded corners?

Representing all the beater collectors on the board, well, these are just too nice to be that old. Are you sure PSA didn't accidentally grade some chrome refractor versions of these cards?

Brian

Well we at least know where the E98 was for the last 100 years or so. Beautiful cards!

Unbelievable. Absolutely unbelievable!

They're all gorgeous, and I would literally chop off my left foot for that bat on shoulder. But of the bunch, I think the T205 impresses me most of all. I don't think I've ever seen a single gold borders card that nice, let alone a Ty Cobb. The color, the centering, the registration, the borders...flawless.

I see a few future Net 54 t-shirt candidates here.

KICKITUP---

First off, thank you for sharing your treasure trove of Cobbs. They are world class gems, so to speak. Heartiest of congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why a few guys are reacting with their own choice of favorite Cobbs, and so on yow yow yow, smacks of smart-alec smack talk. To be sure, there's numerous "great" Cobbs to be had, but with the fabulous five you OWN, I just shake my head in wonder---WOW! Again, thanks for sharing with us, my fellow collector warrior. ---Brian Powell
