Bath Ruth/Cobb Find. Need Your Opinion

For the �why�, anytime you see that crackling effect it means someone has used a brown liquid like tea or coffee to give the appearance of aging/toning.

The Wagner is just it�s own thing that�s bright white with sharp corners that you wouldn�t see on a card like that and the printing looks terrible.

The Cobb has the crackling and the perimeter wear just isn�t honest, card perimeters don�t wear like that over the course of 100 years. That kind of wear happens over the course of 5 minutes.
