T206 Cobb Bat On
 
Or T206 Cobb head off.
This really proves, to me, that for a price everything sells....:eek:

If you had offered that to me for 20 bucks I would have passed. I'm surprised the bid is so high with almost 2 days left.

Which begs the question, "How much of a card can be missing and it still be consider a card?"

I am reeeaaal lenient when it comes to condition, but I expect at least the majority of the player's head to still be present. I am surprised that more than one collector considers this one to be a 3 digit before the decimal card.

The card features the ultimate minimal rendition of a Piedmont reverse as well.

bbcard1 09-06-2019 09:08 PM

I had half a mind to bid on that.

That's half a mind more than Cobb has to contemplate upon the possibility.

I say quit while you're a-head

T206
 
Come on guys.... no Ted Williams jokes?

Bill77 09-06-2019 09:55 PM

So when are they going to auction the other half or did I already miss it?

Aquarian Sports Cards 09-06-2019 09:57 PM

"Bat on?" I thought this was the rare "Head Off"

tothrk 09-06-2019 10:23 PM

Tore up
 
For sopme reason, when my buddies tell me "they got tore up over the weekend" this is not what they meant

prestigecollectibles 09-06-2019 10:46 PM

In a couple of months it will be on eBay as a PSA 7 :D

Billy5858 09-06-2019 11:27 PM

I’ll pass the bottom looks trimmed

You would not buy a card for $20 that is at 100+ with a day to go ?
Why not?
I would buy a beat-up poor $100 bill for 20 bucks ...

Maybe it is about time for me to auction off this little gem...

Brian.

Full disclosure: the front of the card, which is shown on the left (just in case you had some difficulty identifying it as such) has been altered to reveal the underlying materials present that normally are not visible to the naked eye on a regular Diamond Stars card. Advantage this Rogers Hornsby!

Leon 09-08-2019 07:14 AM

Nice card

Hornsby
 
You don't often see cards where the front is larger than the back.

Full disclosure: Front scan enlarged to highlight texture. Actually, the back is smaller than the front...go figure.

frankbmd 09-08-2019 10:50 AM

The front was pressed.

The reverse didn't require pressing.

So if a complete card PSA 1 Bat On Cobb card is say worth in the 1,000 range, shouldn't this card should be worth say HALF? ====$500 plus ??

Leon 09-09-2019 07:25 AM

Would you pay that much for it? :)
