Gorgeous Reprint T206 Cobb Bat On

[iggyman]

I know this is getting old, but this T206 Cobb is a reprint. At least, I'm 99.9% sure. It's a good reprint, but a bit too symmetrical corner wear, and more importantly, the washed-out look should set-off air raid sirens. But alas, some bidders obviously do not have their shields up. Ho, Ho, Ho, Merry Christmas.... By the way, darkstar37 (the seller) deals in prewar cards so they should know better (and probably does know better)...

Looks pretty good to me.


Not saying I would buy it because the picture is very bad and doesn't allow you to look at it closely enough, but just that it looked pretty good.

its a reprint,
I contacted the seller a couple day ago and told them how to tell. they never replied so Im sure they knew.

The caption is misaligned. both "BB's" in "COBB" should be to the left of the edge of the pants
Besides that the only other obvious thing is the "washed out" color, and you cant say its the camera because the table is nice and dark.

He definitely knew it was a reprint. He sold the card before and received this feedback.

"Sold me a reprint T206 Cobb listed as an original. Did provide a full refund."

Here's the listing.

So, is he basically just hoping that the buyer will not send it in to be graded? He states in the auction that he assures is validity.

Ted Nelson: But why do they put a guarantee on the box?

Tommy: Because they know all they sold ya was a guaranteed piece of sh*t.

He said an auction house authenticated it. Which auction house; Bob Connelly?
