Hey guys, anyone here interested in smoking a 107 year old American Beauty cigarette
.
.................. Some of the really tough to find AB 460 cards in this sub-set ...................
A T206 collector, who has 60% of the cards in his AB 460 run, asked me which of the 74 cards are the toughest ?
I'll start with this Cobb. While there are as many as 10 known with the AB 460 back, this Cobb is very tough to find simply because of the "supply vs demand" factor.
