Here is a list of all the black and blue Cobbs I could account for tonight based on the PSA and SGC pop reports. Lots still missing. From this thread, John Spencer indicated he previously had a blue Cobb, but thought it was a PSA 4. Based on the pop reports, and the only sale of the PSA 4 I have, that can't be accurate.

I also don't have VCP so not sure if any others show up there. Hopefully some other members (petecld?) can fill in some of these gaps. I also wouldn't be surprised if a few of these were crossed over at different times.

Thanks DJ. Attached is what VCP shows - the SGC A is the blue one and the SGC 50, which is real pretty, is a black back. I came up with less than what you did- I know Brockelman sold a black-back 1 in 2013; this is the same one that Tony Arnold has on eBay.

The PSA pop report shows 8 graded E92 Crofts Candy Cobbs. SGC show ten graded (incidentally, The Cocoa back seems to be at least 2-3 times more scarce). The problem is that neither pop report distinguishes between colors, so we don’t know how many are black vs blue (or red?).

An extensive google search did not turn up pictures or mention of any other Crofts blue back, which continues to beg the question of whether this is the only “known” one? If anyone has Cobb Croft’s Candy backs, please post, especially if blue or red.

None graded by PSA or SGC. Several years ago some board members claimed they used to own one but no one was ever able/willing to show any proof.

DJ, comparing Cobb and Wagner with respect to E100's/E92 (and similar) backs, a few odd results follow. I wonder if you or anyone knows answers;

Wagner has two E90-1 poses (throwing and batting), and both of those poses generally are known in all variations (E101, E102, E105, E106, E92 Dockman, Crofts Cocoa, Crofts Candy (blue and black), Nadja (and blank?), D303, T216 and so on...

However, Cobb's only E90-1 pose is the batting pose. We find that batting pose in the E105, E106, T216 and D303 sets, along with his leaning on bat pose. However, in the E92 sets, we find only Cobb's leaning on bat pose, which is also his sole pose in E101 and E102 sets, but is not in the E90-1 set.

Why are both Wagner poses in all of these sets, whereas both Cobb poses are not in all of the same sets, some are mutually exclusive, and some sets have both poses?

I am sure this has been discussed, but why do research when I can just ask?!
