This is advertising scorecard from San Antonio TX that has a picture of Cobb batting. It is scored and looks to be the Philly A's verus San Antonio Bronchos. I know Philly was in San Antonio in 1912 & 13 for spring training. A estimate would be nice also.
Thanks
Mark

Oh yeah...not a problem, I just thought if there were others over here that didn't see the earlier thread they'd gain more info before commenting. I still think you're looking at minimum $200...and anywhere up to $400 if that's what Turner sold his for.

I have had a few of them and they sold in that 200-400 range. There is also a Matty one and maybe a few others. Neat and relatively inexpensive scorecards...

That one has Babe Ruth from his first year in the Majors on it...I don't think yours is in the same neighborhood value wise.

I don't think it is worth a fortune. I know it is not in the Ruth league. Even though it is in way better condition and earlier with Ty Cobb. I am just showing another exists. But as a seller of this item I am going to try to get as much as I can obviously. I am curious if by being scored it is more valuable or less?

Depends on the buyer...some like scored programs and some like unused...as a collector who's not worried about value I prefer scored programs because they tell a story, but I'd never pay a premium for a scored program unless something special happened (No hitter, milestone hit, et cetera).
