Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I was looking through some stuff this evening and noticed what might be Branch's first card....after looking at Brett D.'s site I am not sure though....What are thoughts on his 1st card or rookie (or whatever you want to call it)? <br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1146620288.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Steve M.</b><p>Cobb on the 1906 W601 Sporting Life Postcard is his FIRST card.<br /><br />Edited to add the word "postcard" so as not to confuse it with the large Composites.

Posted By: <b>Steve M.</b><p>do you mean that big ole thing that under no circumstances could be characterized as a "card"?

Posted By: <b>jim</b><p>Hi Steve, yes that is the one. It is the same layout as the pc size piece; not sure if size matters here. It is Cobb with his professional team. Though I would not argue extensively whether it is an RC. It is a very pretty picture and does predate the 1906 pc.<br /><br />Is this now a hijacked thread? Didn't mean to do this and disrespect the first poster.
