Default Further Thoughts about Red Cobb with Cobb back

Posted By: David Smith

Richard, that was along the lines of my thinking also. T206 look but a glossy front.

Maybe a Louisiana tobacco company had the bright idea of doing the Ty Cobb brand of smokes but Cobb found out and put a stop to it. Louisiana did get away with including Wagner in their sets.

Cobb was a better businessman than Wagner though and he was from Georgia and not Pennsylvania, so he would have had more people looking out for companies trying to make a buck off of him.
