ScottI bought this bat that was supposedly given by Cobb to a fan in 1911 - it also appears to have cleat marks all over it. The writing also looks vintage and in keeping with what a Cobb fan might put on the bat - the collector supposedly wrote notations like this on most items he picked up. He died in the early '60s at a very old age and this bat was picked up at his estate sale by a very reputable collector who I buy equipment from occasionally.
I could never prove that it was really a Cobb "gamer", and it IS a little short, but perhaps I've got something very valuable? Opinions?
