I'm sure many of you saw this very unique item, and I assume that the winning bidder is a member on the forum (I'm guessing Mr. Leon got it).Anyone know what it actually was?

The research I put into trying to figure it out, I date the image on the card either 1927 or 1928, when Cobb was with Philly. Was he a coach into the 1930s thought?

Something I did stumble upon is that unidentified player in the background, back turned to the camera - black high socks, looks a lot like the unidentified player in the background of this card:



(thanks for the scan BMW - don't have any of my previously owned posted online)


So after seeing that, I start to consider dating the card into the early 1930s.

Anyone else figure anything else out about the card? Congrats to the winner.
