Show us your Cobbs

I know that a lot of you crazy T206 freaks have all 4 Cobbs like me. It's time to whip them out.

Here are my flawed yet snazzy Cobbs. They are a nice, colorful bunch that didn't break the bank:

Nice centering on those Cobbys.

You = :D

Me = :(

Putting Ty in center field allows him to sit atop this stylized baseball diamond display of the Tigers team.

I like your Cobb display. Thats exactly something i am looking at trying to do with mine, as soon i get all 4.
Here are my RED & GREEN i shown many times this year.

RED= DOUBLE NAME TOP/BOTTON

Those are some smooth Cobbs, CW.

Guys an amateur, only thinks he has a Cobb collection. Honestly tired of complementing his pedestrian assembly of Cobb cards. :)

[QUOTE=rats60;1429933]http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b1...s60/Image9.jpg

This is just not even fair. Duplicates of a Cobbery !!

My collection goal was met when I got my great granddad's t209
But getting a Cobb is what keeps me going...

If anyone has one that they are trying to move in order to upgrade....I might be interested.

Awesome cards in this thread!

Mellow Mint Cobb

Rough, different

The only Cob[sic] I've ever owned, I think.

These two are my non T206 Of Cobb.

Here's two more.....

Wow, I've never seen a "black & white" E93. Interesting and cool card, Jerry!

Gorgeous! Someday...

Game action real photo postcards of Cobb are seldom seen and are presumably one-of-a-kind.
The story behind the image can be found on the website below if you're interested in learning more.

Picked this up recently from a member of the board... (Thanks ja.ke liebe.rman)

Yeah, not bad.

Here's something that nobody has seen. An SGC-graded, GEM MINT Cobb 1975 mini (pop 1).

Guess I'll post mine since Jeff hasn't stopped by yet.

My quartet... most have little pulls on the back except for the red, but I'm satisfied.

neat little raw card holders. Assume you created them............

My one and only Cobb !!

Attachment 197115

My two favorites....

Love the 1914 CJ Cobb!! Twice as tough to get in decent shape than the 15s IMO

nice clean centered '14 for the grade.

This might be the best pose in all the hobby!

Nice T202. Cobb Steals Third is definitely my favorite Cobb...

Nice thread...

Bruce, its always pretty to see an e105 Cobby...good luck w/ that Daryl.

WOW. All the rare backs lined up together like that. How long did it take you to put this run together? How many of those Cobb Drum backs are known?

I guess I still own him for now.....

My only Cobb but have always liked the E-94 violet and of course T-206 green. Great cards so far, keep them coming.

No Cobb back huh? That's a shame :D

Only pre-war card I own is the W516-2-1 I bought raw in Cooperstown a couple years ago. I spent about $125 on it even though it's ripped up at the top. Luke Keeler was helpful enough to send it in to PSA for grading :D

The ticket I have pictured my dad got me when I was about 16. Ticket dates July 1, 1922. The White Sox won that game 7-3

Mr. Cobb went 1-4 with a walk and a strikeout against Red Faber. Also playing for the Sox were HOF'ers Harry Hooper, Ray Schalk Cocky Eddie Collins. A total of 5 HOF players took the field that day !!!!

Alas the White Whales Cobb T206 have eluded me and been too rich for my blood :(

Some day I will become triumphant and own at least one and then another day I'll own them all :D

...but pretty darn rare.

There aren't many Type2 York Ty Cobb's floating about, so I had to grab this one despite some minor flaws;)

I think I know of two others, that's it.

Getting tough to find something not posted yet here, so I'll go with this one for now....

Very cool Cobbs you guys, very awesome thread, should have threads like this for other baseball juggernauts.

This has to be the Cobb that was most loved ever by some little boy long ago. It must have gone everywhere with him. At least that is how I imagine it.

None of mine are all that pretty, but hey, Cobb was not a pretty player. He played rough, just like my cards! Some of my favorites.

The two that I have left:

Beautiful cards Luke!

Yikes Luke- those are 2 nice beauties..the exact same ones i am still needing!!!
Maybe i will find nice ones like those.

David - You know I love you posting that Kreindler...greatest piece of art ever created...ever.

1907 Dietsche Fielding Pose Cobb (PSA 5); 1907 Wolverine News Cobb portrait (poor to fair); and 1907 Dietsche batting pose Cobb, PSA 4.5 (due to light stain on the back--otherwise ExMt or better--time to see Dick Towle?). Sorry, no scanner yet--have been buying cards instead!

Highest regards,

Larry

Larry, I don't need to tell you but that is a very highly graded card for that pose.

Re: Show us your Cobbs

These aren't mine yet, but one day I hope to own them ;-)

Unusual Ty Cobb item.

Here is an unusual Ty Cobb item.

It is a heavier Ty Cobb Cutout. 37" x 21" x 1/4" thick.

Anyone ever seen one it before?

I had it framed.

Joe

Nice cards y'all. Here's one...

Great stuff everyone.

Yes, but it is not as good as your Ex. Mine, although having square corners, has some relatively minor chipping around the edges. I would consider it a low "Ex" over all.

Thanks Jeff,

Larry
