Dave, I purchased that Cobb in an eBay auction along with a scrapbook. I had exchanged some emails with the family of the original owner and they seemed so nice, which is why I'm partial to that T206 Cobb red card. The scrapbook contained a few T206's, W517's (including a Ruth), and a bunch of T218's (including a Jack Johnson). I still have all the cards except for the T206 Cobb. The reason the Cobb has back damage is because the daughter of the owner thought it was a good idea to try to remove the Cobb from the scrapbook . Luckily, once she saw what happened, a decision was made not to remove anything else. Okay, back to this great T206 thread...

Lovely Day...
