Long time
 The brown OM Revelle I lost in a Lipset about 10 years ago and it finally made its way to my collection about 2 years ago by trade. That run took many years to build and would not have happened if not for hobby friends sending the Revelles my way. My sickness is well known  hope to see you at the National

My dad and I used to go to postcard shows together. A lady had just sold some baseball postcards to a dealer my dad knew. The dealer called my dad over because he knew I collected baseball postcards. Well after some negotiations we settled on a deal. My dad sacrificed some great postcards from his collection so I could get this card.

T206, M101-5/4, T210, Deadball Era Red Sox type set, Minor Leagues type set, N172 "One Card per Team," and 1858-1918 New England baseball. Although I have started and stopped many projects over the years, one card changed everything:
 The set, pose, background, and player birthplace make this my best card. Once I had it in hand, I sold off my other projects and made the decision to focus solely on Massachusetts born players from the N172 set.

Very cool card, Clint, and with that story behind it I can see
it's one of the priceless cards in your collection. Here's my best... was my holy grail and on my searchlist for 5 or 6 yrs. Still can't believe this card is absent of the standard caramel stains. I may sell off my collection one day, but they will have to fight the rigor mortis when they peel this Cobb from my hands.

Thanks Chuck and you're exactly right. That card is never going anywhere. The CJ Cobb of yours looks damn nice especially for a 1914. Great cards everyone and a great thread.
