Hi-
I recently acquired the Cobb snapshots (along with the Ruth I posted in the Bambino thread) shown below at the Wilmington MA card show. I really like the one where he is smiling, but the other two showing him at bat are really cool as well. I will be researching the games played later in the week.

Cool Cobb snaps!

BTW, I've never seen the Detroit "D" in that font on Cobber's jersey in the last photo. Very cool!

Any of you Detroit uniform experts know if this was a uniform that the Tigers wore for any length of time? I'm used to seeing the Old English D....

Very nice Alan! I'm sorry I missed you on Saturday...was stuck at the SGC booth : (

Hi Scott, I was previously trying to identify a Detroit Tigers player and one of the board members shared with me this excellent site. From the site, it looks like the Tigers wore this style uniform from 1918-1920.

Default JIm Thorpe
Very nice Cobb pics. I picked up this 1931 photo of Jim Thorpe today. I thought the headress was classic.

This is my first time ever seeing that exhibit. It's quite impressive. I have always been fascinated by Thorpe. The photo is the only item featuring him in my collection as I tend to stick to baseball. I seem to be buying a number of these photos lately. This one came in the mail today. I am not a football fan and I'm a 3rd generation Yankee hater. Nonetheless Don Larsen and the NY Giants together with the Stadium facade in the background was irresistible.
