1917 Ty Cobb letter advise

[w7imel]

and I agree with everything you said my only problem is im not used to seeing "player"cobb autos as much as I am later day signatures. I have read cobbs earlier signatures were very flamboint but yet to see many of them

there are some good examples including some early ones that have a few of the characteristics of yours. You may have already checked.

check the detroit letterhead one especially, looks similar

I agree, the more I looked at early cobb sigs. The less concerned I was. Think it's good, and a great unique piece

This is such a great piece. Only one question since the item is framed and we are looking at photos, is there a chance that this could be a photocopy of a letter, especially if Mike authenticated it in the frame without removing it from the frame ? I say this because at times some pieces are authenticated in the frame and not removed from the frame by the authenticator.
I am not trying to be Mister Negative just putting in a question to be sure of this piece.

It's fine

Wow. Cobb was such a prolific writer that I didn't even bother with this thread for a while. But a 1917 letter? Now that's a whole 'nother somethin'.

Awesome piece.
