Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p><br /> Hi Brian,<br /> Nice addition to your collection of Cobb's. That Cobb has been around the block a few times, and has been owned by at least 3-4 members of this board. I'm glad to see it ended up in your Cobb heaven hoard.<br /><br /> Be well Brian<br /><br />PS How many backs are you missing now?

Posted By: <b>Brian E.</b><p>I am aware of the history of this particular Lenox Cobb and came close to acquiring it last year from a board member. <br /><br />It fills yet another hole in my collection and it will fit nicely. I'm still in need of a Drum, Uzit and Hindu. Obviously, the Hindu will be the easiest and least expensive of the three to acquire but I have not seen one on the market in the last two years. <br /><br />Brian E.

Posted By: <b>Cat</b><p>always the bridesmaid, never the bride. High Bidder on the e90-2 Wagner for the 15 days leading up to the final day. I thought I had bid a fair price, and believed it could very well be mine, but someone decide to go that extra bid on the last day. I just could not justify paying $7,700 for it (the next bid). I haven't won a card of significance since REA.<br /><br /><br><br>________________<br /><br /><a href="http://www.audiocomedy.net/soundboards/jacket.shtml" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.audiocomedy.net/soundboards/jacket.shtml</a>

Posted By: <b>Joe Jones</b><p>I was working on one of the e104's and had to drive down state for the UofM football game today and blew a tire on the road <img src="/images/sad.gif" height=14 width=14>, so I missed out on the end of the auction. Congrats on the Ty Cobb though!

Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p><br /> Hi Brian,<br /> I wouldn't be so sure about the Hindu being that much cheaper, because I have seen more Uzit back Cobb's than Hindu's...<br /><br /> Good luck Brian

Posted By: <b>Dan Kravitz</b><p>The brown Hindu may sell for 2/3 the price of a Uzit if you can even find them. The last Uzit Cobb SGC 40 sold for $11,500.00. I would think a brown Hindu would cost you $7K-$8K and a red Hindu would cost you double that. If you are interested in a Uzit Cobb, email me. I picked up an e92 Croft's with a blue back. I think they are very attractive.
