T206 Ty Cobb...Broad Leaf 460???? **Auction Ended by Seller**

[T205 GB]

Blue Old Mill. Show of hands from guys with opinions who actually held and looked at the card....

Anyway I have yet to meet anyone that held that card raw and drew the conclusion it was fake. I would love to proven wrong about that card though!

I saw it. It did not appear altered to me.

Please observe my thoughts on the card in the attached image below:

1. Center: creasing on the front seems to be intentional/recent, indicating artificial aging.
2. Top left: creasing on top left seems enunciated on the front but is hardly visible on the back. Possible discrepancy due to lighting and photos.
3. Top right; indentation seems to be significantly larger on the front than the back.
4. Bottom left; spider creasing seems significant on the back for the major crease and completely absent for the two minor creases; again, possible discrepancy due to lighting and photos.
5. Arrows on reverse: a streak of yellow would likely indicate shading issues/sunlight exposure/highlighter or pen markings. No such residual evidence is found on the front as the coloring/tinting seems to be excellent.

These are things that would cause me to stay away if the card was ungraded by a professional. Not all of these observations would immediately disqualify the card for me, but without holding it in hand, raw or graded, I would not buy it.

I also handled the Blue Old Mill and based on a fairly good examination, also felt it was probably good.
