View Full Version : Does the T206 Cobb/Cobb Back Have Roll Cuts?

I don't think this has been addressed here but the SGC Collector magazine article on T206 trimming (Winter '07) mentions every factory cut T206 has a roll cut on at least one horizontal and one vertical edge. Is this roll cut on the Cobb/Cobb edges (or for that matter on the edges of T213-1 cards)?

Realistically, the roll cut could be the final arbiter of the whole "what is/what isn't a T206" argument.

Do you have a scan/pdf of this article? I would very much like to read it.

OK, I am not comfortable posting the whole article without permission from SGC (and/or Leon) but here is an excerpt that discusses the edge rolls on T206. The printing at different factories discussion is moot obviously.

Again, this may be a useful way to determine if the Cobb/Cobb is a T206 or not but will necessarily defer to the braintrust. If anyone who has a Cobb/Cobb can let the board know about how the edges are cut/rolled it would be great!

I thought you had something new, but it's the same as what's already on this site: http://net54baseball.com/forum/content/trimming.html

But thanks anyway! :)

Well, that does not surprise me. I am still interested in what the edges of the Cobb/Cobb reveal though. Anybody?? Bueller?
