This subject was recently posted in the T206 REFERENCE thread (posts #698 - 713). Now, continuing here from those posts, let's have a friendly and meaningful discussion.
Nine years ago, Jon Canfield posted this Ty Cobb/TY COBB thread..
What We Have Learned About Ty Cobbs With a Ty Cobb Back . It sparked some spirited discussion,
plus evidence revealing that the Ty Cobb Cut Plug Smoking Tobacco was introduced in
November 1909. Furthermore, it's my opinion that this card was issued Spring 1910.
Only eight red portrait Cobb cards with the Ty Cobb back were known 9 years ago. Since then 14 more have been discovered. Most of them have been from collections in the
greater Atlanta area.
Anyway, with all that we have learned on this forum about this mysterious card....Is this card, or isn't this card part of the T206 family ?
