Jamie...you work very quickly...it'd be amazing if someday it were truly complete cobb back, t214/15's and all!!!!
Anyone have any T,D,E(non t206) runs? Thanks Chris for the presentation! Heres the latest rendition of the "millers." |
Jamie, Chris, Rob and Pete....awesome runs! These types of displays are part of why this board is such a great place to visit.
Pete...what was your reason to target Miller as your back run? Very nice by the way. |
Pete, is there a blue Crofts?
|
Yes...somewhere!:)
|
Ya know mike...i had always liked the pose...the silliness of the size of the mitt...kinda like catcher in the rye. I acquired the e102 first which is a pretty tough card to get...from there it just grew. I love the runs...it combines type collecting and set collecting...keeps me entertained as i still need 5-7 really really toughies.

Jaime, I'm hijacking your thread to say that I found another Merkle. I just need one more to finish my back run (T215 Red Cross).
So if anyone has one and wants to help me/ hold me up, please let me know. Attachment 123059 Attachment 123060 |
Woot woot Sean!!!
|
nice Sean...that t215 will turn out sooner than later!!!! The washed out look of t213-3 has really grown on me over the years!
|
HI Sean.
Great Card!.. how many Merkles do you have all together for your run now? Here is an updated pic of the cobbs.. since I started this thread I was able to acquire the tough Sov 460 (Thanks to Chris and Johnny) and Pied 460 Fact 42 (Thanks to Scott and Hank) I'm up to 24 Different Cobbs... and still actively looking for the EPDG and the T213-3 Coupon.... Cobb back maybe one day :) Happy Thanksgiving everyone! http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...ps621c9e41.jpg |
such an awesome collection
Congrats
|
Wow man what an accomplishment
|
Congrats Jamie, both tough ones. Only the EPDG needed for a complete T206 brand run?

Jamie....
you deserved it......:)
|
I love Cobb, I love Red. Congratulations , very, very impressive.
|
About as far as I can get with this one, unless someone has a CB, BL350 or Drum. I'm looking at you Ted :D
Jamie, any progress? https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5537/1...b1f55ed0_b.jpg |
Simply amazing!
|
Amazing to see, wow
|
Hey Guys...
I may not get a chance to do to many more of these updates with the cobbs that are left which I still need. Big thanks to Brian W!.... thanks to Brian I was able to cross off the Cobb EPDG.. making the run up to 25 different Cobbs... to my knowledge this is the longest backrun for any single pose. Here is an updated pic with the EPDG. (and yes Chris.. I am getting a new scanner for christmas.. so the quality of this pic will be much better very soon :) ) http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...ps821de890.jpg Still actively looking for the T213 Type 3 Coupon Happy Holidays! |
|
Pete,
Awesome Miller run! Chris, Very cool! Jamie, That is over-the-top amazing!!!! JimB |
Nice going Jaime. I'm predicting that the next Cobb that you add will be the T214 Victory.
|
Red cobb
Anyone know if there is a Blank Back Red Cobb floating around out there? If so, it truly belongs in this collection. Thanks for Sharing Jamie.
Regards John P |
Jamie,
Speechless! That is an amazing run of Cobb's. Even though it will be difficult...hope you get the other ones to make it totally complete! Jerry |
Meet The Cobbs...
|
Hey Guys.... a quick update to this thread from 2 years ago.. it has been a long time since a new cobb was added.. but after last nights auction I was able to finally cross off the Type 3 Coupon Cobb. I had not seen another for sale in the last 2 years.
With the addition of this T213-3 that makes 27 different cobbs for the back run. http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/g...ps9pxjhtkd.jpg |
Very cool! Congrats!:)

I need the T214 Victory and the cobb back.
|
Way to go Jaime. :)
But I think that there is a T213 Type-3 with a Factory 8 overprint somewhere. :( |
Jamie
:eek:
|
Beautiful. Just stunning.
|
Congrats Jamie. I believe you have the longest possible back run out there. [emoji1]
|
How many ty cobb backs can possibly even be out there?
I would think that one would cost a small fortune... Either way, that's an incredible collection and thanks for sharing! |
Jamie that is a fantastic collection you have! Congrats on your accomplishment!
|
Awesome!!

That is an amazing run. I love seeing stuff like that.

Pied Fact 42
Incredible collection of Cobbs!
You know my first Cobb was a Red Portrait Piedmont Fact 42. It wasn't until later that I learned it was quite rare. But, not being a type collector, and being young and in need of a little extra $ I sold it and replaced it with a regular Piedmont back and pocketed some difference in cash. I sometimes wonder if that was a good move or not, but I do still love the Cobb I still have that replaced the Fact 42 one. |
T206 Cobb run
hey Jamie-
a huge congratulations is in order... what you have accomplished is not merely remarkable & enviable, but truly a masterpiece! absolutely stunning. |
amazing collection man....
|
This has to be the best back run that I've ever seen. Especially that BL 460.
|
I'm not a T206 fan, but that group image is so amazing. Thanks for sharing.
|
thanks guys it has been challenging to find to find some of these ones.. i have needed help from several board members... the american beauty for example hasnt been sold in something like 8 years in a major auction house. it took me 2 years to find the type 3... the blank back is a 1 of 2 i believe... the BL460 is a 1 of 1... the drum is a 1 of 3... and the red hindu is a 1 of 5. also the sov 460 cobb is exceptionally tough... i only know of 3 or 4 of those....
but it is fun to look at so many tough cards lined up next to each other....glad you guys enjoyed the run as much as i do. |

Congrats Jamie.
I know you were interested in that T213-3. Interestingly it went for $500 more than the type 1. I personally think the type 3 is more scarce. Great red Cobby run. Quote:
|
awesome Jamie...the king of all runs...and I love runs...even T206 runs!!!!!
I knew you'd be going after that one...for some reason I thought there was another t213-3 cobb up for sale recently? Maybe it was the same one? Good luck with the last 2! |
That is really cool. Too bad that cards cannot be displayed that way without purchasing another set of backs.
|
wow wee😳😳😳😳
|
Please no one take offense to this: This Red Cobb run is the most impressive thing I have seen on this board to date. Awesome!
|
Just fantastic!!
|
T206 Cobbs
Amazing collection! Thanks for sharing.
|
I bet Jefferson Burdick is smiling now at your accomplishment. Well Done!
|
Cool thread!
Do all of the 6 super prints have the same number of backs? |

|
Bump for David and anyone else who would like to see this. :)
|
You are the man!! Thanks Sean!
|
Thanks for bumping this up. I'm rather new and it's the first I've seen it.
Amazing! Joshua Van Pelt |
Hi Everyone...
It has been a while since I was able to secure a new back which was needed...and update this thread... I am happy to report I have successfully acquired the Cobb Back for the Cobb back run... one of the lucky 7... A big thank you to Joe Orlando and the PSA team for their help in facilitating the transaction!... This makes 29 out of 30 possible backs acquired... Only missing the T214 Victory.... It continues to be an unbelievable journey which started as a modest goal of 15-18 different Cobbs.. Now might have a chance to actually be completed one day... Check out the updated scan below.. https://i.imgur.com/73dgZ4w.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ADop47p.jpg https://i.imgur.com/gkKUm8X.jpg High Resolution Scan of the Run (you might have to scroll right on your screen to see them all) https://i.imgur.com/tuXCAys.jpg |
My goodness! Simply amazing! Well done Jamie!
|
Wow, congrats, very impressive. I remember your initial post 4 years ago. Wishing you luck on that pesky last one!
|
Holy Moly! That is awesome. I am very happy for you. Good luck on the Victory!
|
This is seriously awesome.
|
"...life is much more successfully looked at from a single window, after all."

Amazing! congrats.
One of those Ty Cobb backs kinda belongs in your collection, Jamie, and that's a beautiful example (back included). |
Just when I think your run can't get any better... I hope Victory will soon be yours.
|
Great googly moogly!
Good stuff! |
Could be one of the best "set" collections ever. just really amazingly cool. Congrats on the new pickup.
|
Unreal. Congratulations. That collection belongs in the HOF, truly. And that a great looking 2.5 ty Cobb back
|
I'm not even a t206 guy and I find this absolutely incredible! Speechless.
|
Outstanding! Best of luck with the final piece!
