Well, just did lots of reasearch and have determined that the gold watch presented to Cobb during his last minor league game for Augusta in 1905 was funded by a collection taken up by the team's fans and was presented to him that day by the Mayor of Augusta. Now all we need is a historical photo of the Mayor of Augusta from 1905 and match it up to this postcard. I'm not sure the 1904 date rather than 1905 can ever be proven unless the individual in the photo was not the mayor of Augusta in 1905 and passed away prior to 1905, thus eliminating that as a possibility.
