Default Red HINDU Cobb

The red Cobb exists with the BROAD LEAF 460; and, according to my theory presented in this thread......

"Near final confirmation of the BROAD LEAF 460 & Red HINDU matched "twins"

http://www.net54baseball.com/showthr...+460+red+hindu

....the red Cobb should have been printed with a red HINDU back. However, I'd venture to say that the red Cobb is a rule breaker in this
case.
Therefore, I would not put any stock in ever finding a legitimate red Cobb with a red HINDU back.

Finally, there are many of us long-time T206 collectors/dealers in this hobby. Guys like Bill Heitman, Irv Lerner, Don Flewelling, Tom Faith,
Mark Macrae (and many more) who between us have seen 100's of 1000's of T206 cards in the past 40 years. Never has any of us seen
any of the four T206 Cobb's with either a brown or red HINDU back. Why Cobb was not inserted in HINDU cigarette packs remains a very
strange mystery.
