I'm trying to wrap up a post for my blog about the Hubel Ty Cobb postcard.
I recall that card being discussed on the forum, and at least one other Tiger named as being in the same set. Was I hallucinating?

Jeff showed one in the February pickup thread and many folks were suitably awed.
It's post #15.

Walmart?
I was surprised to hear there was more than one known, if I recall correctly.

I don't recall where I left my keys this morning, much less previous threads, but that is clearly the coolest Cobb postcard ever.

I've seen a raw Cobb as well as another player (whose name I forget) in this pose.

I'm pretty sure a Willett exists as well. If memory serves me correctly, it was being offered by a dealer at the National in Cleveland (2009).
Jeffs,
Those are the coolest!

Leave it to Jeff to have one on hand!
Best always,
