Awesome letters Jeff.

The transcription is a nice touch.

What is the postmark on the Seamless Steel Tubes PC ? On the postcard it states that he is 21 years old, he would be 21 on Dec 18,1907. Thanks

October 1907. All known Seamless Cobb's that have been postmarked are from October 07 I believe. Seamless Steel Tube Co must have just decided he was close enough to 21 at time of production.

I think your Seamless is one of my favorite pieces in the hobby. I love it more that he apologizes for writing on an advertising card.

I know, I know. I actually have a nice scanner - it took me 3 years to buy one, another 6 months for my kid to install and hook it up, and it wil probably be another year before I start using it. I do not embrace technology at all.

Kevin, that fielding Cobb totally kicks ass. I hope I own one of those someday- total treasure.
