Sen. Russell's collection incl. Doyle error & Ty Cobb back

Nice observation......

However, some one has to talk to SGC....this is the worst mis-labeling of a BB card that I have seen.
Much less, identifying this card as a "T206 Ty Cobb"

We are letting these Grading Co. contradict years of research in the cataloging of BB cards with their erroneous
labels.
And what is worst, is that once incorrectly done (such as this one), it is then considered the established ID from
then on ! !

At least SGC could have simply labeled it.....

TY COBB TOBACCO
Ty Cobb (red portrait)

This really bothers me, as I have seen this with incorrect dating of certain E-card sets by Graded Co. labels......
and, one of the most egregious Grading Co. labels identifies the 1949 LEAF BB as "1948-49 Leaf".
