Love that Cobb, how many are known? Strange though that they used an image at least 5 years old (1909 M101-2)

teddy Z might know, if i remember correctly Frank Nagy might've had the most Texas Tommy's at one time back in the day.

There is a collector that has the complete or nearly complete set (not sure if they have the last few that have been added to the checklist over the years) of Texas Tommy cards. He purchased th collection from a collector that was from Idaho. That is, I'm pretty sure, the most complete set of Texas Tommy cards out there.

I definitely would have yelled out "Yahtzee!" if I had opened up this box.

Always fun to see original collections, and just another confirmation that the Texas Tommy cards had their limited distribution in the Bay Area.

Add another thing to check at the flea market. Now I've got to open every box I see.
