AnsonThanks to you, BCD, Dan K, Leon, and a few others, it's getting closer. It's still interesting how there is some speculation to the E92, E101, E102 etc date distribution and how it relates to Cobb's first true card.
While grading pops don't tell the whole story, it's interesting that E102s are valued signficantly higher (double in some cases) than E101s. SGC and PSA pop reports show almost twice as many E102s graded than E101s. Maybe it was the inital thought that the E102s were from 1908, making it Cobb's rookie year. However, the inclusion of certain players puts them closer to 1909-1910.
Maybe it's the stepped checklist that makes them more appealing???
