5. HM Taylor (Batting)
6. Dietsche Cobb Batting (‘07 version only)

I agree. The Steel Tubes is Cobb’s second most important “rookie” card after the W600. Its a bad ass pose, and it’s rare as hell. Imagine if there were a 1916 Babe Ruth postcard with him in that pose. The team pc is going for a fortune as it is. An ultra-rare 1916 PC with only Ruth on it, especially in that pose, would go for an absolute fortune.

I basically agree with your list. I would just switch around the Wolverine Portrait and the Dietsche Fielding.

To me, the Seamless Steel Tubes is clearly the best of the group. I love the unique pose - Cobb standing there in full uniform holding his bat in one hand and his glove in the other. It is also, by far, the scarcest of them all.

I'm sure if I had a seamless Cobb...I'd like it more!!!!! a 1906 Ruth?????? He'd be like 11 years old????

You'd have to like it a lot before owning one to shell out the $ needed to get one.

Pete's more a t207 Lowdermilk kind of guy.

I'd take a w600 Cobb over all the postcards combined.
