Signed Cobb T206

[whitehse]

Thanks for the response. I knew Cobb was a decent signer but didnt realize that that many t206's would have been signed by him. This particular item is something I know I would love to have but its way out of my price range!

Can someone loan me $49,995.00 I wish to purchase this card and i am a little short!

Would you guys keep the piece all together like shown or have the card authenticated?

I would have the card authenticated and slabbed, just to protect it from any damage, and I would keep the letter and index card together in a frame of some sort.

It would be cool if a TPG could just slab the whole thing.

I was just about to say the same thing at Matt....

How about you get the card slabbed, then take the card and letter and what have you and have them all framed and matted into one piece.

Could be the most beautiful piece if done properly! (MAKE SURE THEY USE UV GLASS)

Yeh, those Cobb autographs have to be plentiful. I don't have a card, but I do have a 3 page letter with envelope and a check. If I have those they can't be rare. I would like the signed card though.

This might be a dumb question as it's not my area of expertise, but doesn't Beckett make special holders for stuff like this?

They should encapsulate/frame memorabilia. They could make tamper-evident frames with the flip incorporated somewhere in the piece.
