View Full Version : M116 Cobb- faded at best?
Ty looks a bit under the weather. I wonder if it even gets an A?

Trimmed as well. I am not sure it's real? Front looks really funky.

Looks like it got wet at some point. Also trimmed as stated, not sure it will grade. overpriced IMO even if real.
I don't know much about M116 issue, but there appears to be a very faint gray border around the part of the image where the white border ought to be - and this is then surrounded by a white border. To me that suggests that this might be a copy because I would think that faint gray border ought to be white.
The back looks real anyway.......my guess is just a messed up but real front. Not positive though.

When I was around eleven I lost a baseball card. A year or two later I found it underneath a rug we were getting rid of - the rubberish matting that keeps the rug from slipping had worn the front of the card as people walked on it, so that it looked much like this Cobb.
Very possible. Most of us have seen some strange looking cards due to any elements or from them aging in the wrong place.
