Ty Cobb Postcard
Why is the contrast on Cobb so much different than the rest of the players?

Go figure.....
Beautiful postcard but of course out of every subject......the only one that is blemished is Cobb! Ugh!
So cool though! Wow! Mike |

Cool postcard. Not saying this applies to Cobb, but part of me thinks this is a composite....not sure how else to explain the floating head!

Nice catch, would be a type 3 in the photograph world.

Now that I look at it, I think maybe one or two others in the background were not present at the original photo and were added later. To be clear, I am not saying that the postcard did not originally look like this when issued (I have no idea). I am saying that in the process of creating the postcard, some faces were added by laying a negative on top of the original negative (or whatever people did before Photoshop).

Also, if you follow the angle of the roof from the other direction, again, you can see it take a weird angle. I'm sure it sounds convoluted, but my wife convinced me that there is someone there...body and all!!!!!

Interesting, that's definitely possible too, but I've also seen a lot of team rppcs where they add a head of a missing player.
Regardless, great postcard, even with the pinhole should do well. |
