Posted By: <b>brian parker</b><p>Check out this lot:<BR><BR><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1850464655" target=_new>http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1850464655</a><BR><BR>The seller mentions that this E95 Cobb is probably 100 times rarer than a T206 Cobb (he is probably not far off), but then goes to provide photos of two other examples that recently came up for auction (nothing like proving your point with evidence to the contrary). One of these cards did not meet its reserve price (always good to tout a card's lack of desirability). But the kicker is that the seller includes scans of the other two cards that are much larger than the mini ones he provides for the one he is selling. And I had to read the description (and its add-on 'clarification') three times to realize which of the cards shown he is actually auctioning.<BR><BR>Brian
