[insidethewrapper]

I love Cobb, I love Red. Congratulations , very, very impressive.

[atx840]

About as far as I can get with this one, unless someone has a CB, BL350 or Drum. I'm looking at you Ted

Jamie, any progress?

[sporteq]

Simply amazing!

[Tobacco206]

Amazing to see, wow

[Blunder19]

Hey Guys...

I may not get a chance to do to many more of these updates with the cobbs that are left which I still need.

Big thanks to Brian W!.... thanks to Brian I was able to cross off the Cobb EPDG.. making the run up to 25 different Cobbs... to my knowledge this is the longest backrun for any single pose.

Here is an updated pic with the EPDG. (and yes Chris.. I am getting a new scanner for christmas.. so the quality of this pic will be much better very soon )


Still actively looking for the T213 Type 3 Coupon

Happy Holidays!

I don't know if I want to laugh or cry. Amazing.

Nice going Jaime. I'm predicting that the next Cobb that you add will be the T214 Victory.

[JohnP0621]

Anyone know if there is a Blank Back Red Cobb floating around out there? If so, it truly belongs in this collection. Thanks for Sharing Jamie.

Jamie,

Speechless! That is an amazing run of Cobb's. Even though it will be difficult...hope you get the other ones to make it totally complete!

Hey Guys.... a quick update to this thread from 2 years ago.. it has been a long time since a new cobb was added.. but after last nights auction I was able to finally cross off the Type 3 Coupon Cobb. I had not seen another for sale in the last 2 years.

With the addition of this T213-3 that makes 27 different cobbs for the back run.

[Enfuego]

Very cool! Congrats!

So, other than the Ty Cobb back, which one do you still need?

[Blunder19]

I need the T214 Victory and the cobb back.

[Sean]

Way to go Jaime.

But I think that there is a T213 Type-3 with a Factory 8 overprint somewhere.

[mrvster]

[Econteachert205]

Beautiful. Just stunning.

[atx840]

Congrats Jamie. I believe you have the longest possible back run out there.

[Joshwesley]

How many ty cobb backs can possibly even be out there?

I would think that one would cost a small fortune...

Either way, that's an incredible collection and thanks for sharing!

[Jacker_ Cracks]

Jamie that is a fantastic collection you have! Congrats on your accomplishment!

[shernan30]

Awesome!!

That is an amazing run. I love seeing stuff like that.

[TheKid41]

Incredible collection of Cobbs!

You know my first Cobb was a Red Portrait Piedmont Fact 42. It wasn't until later that I learned it was quite rare. But, not being a type collector, and being young and in need of a little extra $ I sold it and replaced it with a regular Piedmont back and pocketed some difference in cash.

I sometimes wonder if that was a good move or not, but I do still love the Cobb I still have that replaced the Fact 42 one.

[sando69]

hey Jamie-
a huge congratulations is in order...
what you have accomplished is not merely remarkable & enviable, but truly a masterpiece!
absolutely stunning.

[1952boyntoncollector]

amazing collection man....

[Sean]

This has to be the best back run that I've ever seen. Especially that BL 460.

[4815162342]

I'm not a T206 fan, but that group image is so amazing. Thanks for sharing.

[Blunder19]

thanks guys it has been challenging to find to find some of these ones.. i have needed help from several board members... the american beauty for example hasnt been sold in something like 8 years in a major auction house. it took me 2 years to find the type 3... the blank back is a 1 of 2 i believe... the BL460 is a 1 of 1... the drum is a 1 of 3... and the red hindu is a 1 of 5. also the sov 460 cobb is exceptionally tough... i only know of 3 or 4 of those....

but it is fun to look at so many tough cards lined up next to each other....glad you guys enjoyed the run as much as i do.

That's why David Hall is advertising for one in the current SMR.

[Leon]

Congrats Jamie.
I know you were interested in that T213-3. Interestingly it went for $500 more than the type 1. I personally think the type 3 is more scarce. Great red Cobby run.

[ullmandds]

awesome Jamie...the king of all runs...and I love runs...even T206 runs!!!!!

I knew you'd be going after that one...for some reason I thought there was another t213-3 cobb up for sale recently? Maybe it was the same one?

Good luck with the last 2!

[Huck]

That is really cool. Too bad that cards cannot be displayed that way without purchasing another set of backs.

[rjackson44]

wow wee😳😳😳😳

[Laxcat]

Please no one take offense to this: This Red Cobb run is the most impressive thing I have seen on this board to date. Awesome!

[Stonepony]

Just fantastic!!

[gemmint77]

Amazing collection! Thanks for sharing.

[Yoda]

I bet Jefferson Burdick is smiling now at your accomplishment. Well Done!

[PolarBear]

Cool thread!


Do all of the 6 super prints have the same number of backs?

I don't think any of us would be offended.

[Sean]

Bump for David and anyone else who would like to see this.

[Pilot172000]

You are the man!! Thanks Sean!

[Thecafewha]

Thanks for bumping this up. I'm rather new and it's the first I've seen it.

Amazing!

Hi Everyone...

It has been a while since I was able to secure a new back which was needed...and update this thread...

I am happy to report I have successfully acquired the Cobb Back for the Cobb back run... one of the lucky 7... A big thank you to Joe Orlando and the PSA team for their help in facilitating the transaction!...

This makes 29 out of 30 possible backs acquired... Only missing the T214 Victory.... It continues to be an unbelievable journey which started as a modest goal of 15-18 different Cobbs..
Now might have a chance to actually be completed one day...

Check out the updated scan below..

[ValKehl]

My goodness! Simply amazing! Well done Jamie!

[nsaddict]

Wow, congrats, very impressive. I remember your initial post 4 years ago. Wishing you luck on that pesky last one!

[edjs]

Holy Moly! That is awesome. I am very happy for you. Good luck on the Victory!

[Kawika]

This is seriously awesome.

Amazing! congrats.

One of those Ty Cobb backs kinda belongs in your collection, Jamie, and that's a beautiful example (back included).
