Posted By: <b>Mark</b><p>I realize the front is very nice but with writing on back and a SGC 20 grade i would say the seller made out good. Anyone from here grab this card?<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/M116-Sporting-Life-Ty-Cobb-SGC-Graded_W0QQitemZ190078835692QQihZ009QQcategoryZ579 93QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/M116-Sporting-Life-Ty-Cobb-SGC-Graded_W0QQitemZ190078835692QQihZ009QQcategoryZ579 93QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a>

Posted By: <b>Bobby Binder</b><p>Curious because the writing on the back says M-116 I wonder if it was one of the pioneers of the hobby who wrote that on the back as they where creating all the ACC set numbers. Don't some of you have cards from them that have writing on them as well?<br /><br />Maybe you can compare the writting on it to Burdick's.<br /><br />I don't think a typical collector would of wrote that on the back.

Posted By: <b>Steve f</b><p>These are getting very popular. That card may have been thrown around... Is that bottom, back edge damage?

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>The writing on the back does look sort of vintage to me. I have copies of Burdick, Bray, Barker (I think), and Corson's writings on my website. My guess, from the way it looks, is that it could be a tad later writing. Certainly not in the last 10-15 years but maybe a little before that (just a hunch).......best regards

Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>I have a couple of nice E94s which have "E-94" written in small ink pen on the back which looks almost identical to this.<br />And yes, the M116 set is starting to move...

Posted By: <b>bigfish</b><p>That is a good point. The card did have the 300 subjects back.
