Posted By: <b>Joann</b><p>Wow Daryle. That T3 is just great looking. Looks like you and I both did very well with Dan K's latest BST sale. I grabbed the Cobb Green and couldn't be happier with it. I hadn't seen a scan of the T3, and now that I do ... wow.<br><br>Joann

Posted By: <b>Daryle</b><p>Thanks Joann, <br><br>Dan and I stayed on the phone for nearly two hours and ended up with a deal that landed me both of those cards. I sacrificed a &quot;goodie&quot; but I feel it was worth it. We were both happy in the end and thats what counts.<br> I always wanted a T3 Cobb but I always ended up buying something else when I had the cash to get one and couldn't find one that was eye-pleasing in my price range.<br><br>That Green Cobb you picked up is nice as well.<br><br> Can't go wrong with Cobby

Posted By: <b>Steve F</b><p> Matt, I wouldn't be surprised if that sign was rediscovered during demolition, beneath a South End brownstone's old facade. In the 70's, there was a large old &quot;Wild West Show&quot; poster found on an inside wall of a rehabbed Dorchester triple-decker in this manner, that sold for a couple of grand.<br> We Bostonians have been thinking green for centuries and can be quite, ummm... Frugal, I believe the word is <img src="/images/wink.gif" height="14" width="14" alt="wink.gif"> <br> <br> My question to you is. Was this THE food for the family dog in the 1900's?
