Lets see your best Ty Cobbs. New to the forums
 

This is my first post. In honor of getting my t216 Ty Cobb Kotton card graded this week I would love to see everyone else's Ty Cobbs! I also have a t206 red portrait. Will post my Kotton when it is graded.

Welcome to the boards Brett. A T216 Kotton Cobb is a fantastic piece, congrats! Can't wait to see it.

Hi Brett, and welcome to Net 54. Here's a few Cobbs. I got the green one from Charlie Conlan. Attachment 216148

Welcome!
 

Here's mine...

http://www.collectingbrooklyn.com/net54/1909E95Cobb.jpg

Ty Cobb is my focus as well. Here's a pic I snapped before a show. I bring my Cobbs to display in hopes of picking one up I don't have.

Matt, nice group of Cobbs. Which back is on that card on the bottom, middle of the page? The portrait looks orange. Is that a Hindu back?

Brett - welcome and great first post. Dean, that Bat On is stunning. Sean, love the Green - it seems to be among the hottest pre-war cards at the moment. I can literally hear the value going up!

My only Cobb. For now ...

Edited to add: Welcome to Net54! This place is great. I look forward to seeing your T216 Cobb, I hope you get a half grade over what you are hoping for.

Fun card

Thanks Sean. I've been hitting it hard lately. It's a P350/25. It was on display. No back damage but you can see a deep red in the shape of an art mount corner.

I was able to add these over the holidays. The blanket and colgans I picked up as Xmas gifts to myself. I picked up the strip card at the Plano show this weekend. Had my Cobbs on display.

Posted this on another thread, but why not again!

Jay - that card is killer! I couldn't believe it when that card popped up on eBay earlier this year!

Here's my modest contribution - c1905 PC (looks like he just robbed the candy store in Augusta):

Great Subject!

Got my first Cobb this year as well - the T205 has been a favorite of mine for a long time.
I absolutely love that Philadelphia caramel Cobb...someday!

Hoping to round out the T206 rotation this year.

Great vintage card. I love red portrait Cobbs and will no doubt have one in the future. Oh yeah, welcome to the forum too!

Welcome Brett
 

Brett, Welcome to the forum!
Amazing, beautiful Cobbs everyone! JB, I love the Brush Cobb Postcard. It's one I hope to own someday.

JB, what's that Cobb you posted showing him with the A's?

I just finished reading the new bio of Cobb by Charles Leehrsen and came away with a much better opinion of the man than I heretofore had. He was no angel but he wasn't either a raving psycho, but rather a sensitive, complicated person.
Here are some of my Cobb items.

Hi Paul,
The Cobb you mentioned is an uncatalogued premium C.1948 (that's what I was told). It has Rabbit Maranville on the other side. I have another one of Satchel Paige and Bobo Newsome. Other than that, I know nothing else about them!

My only Cobb so far. Hoping to add more this coming year.

that the nicest 2 I have ever seen man...I am prejudice against most cards under a 4 unless its a 5 figure card or something....but that 2 could change me on that

Great stuff guys!

David - That M110 is fabulous!

Sam - Thanks for the kind words and your Cobb's are awesome. Love the centering and full borders on that E95. Is that one from Leon's collection?

Brett - Superb color and registration on that red Cobby! I agree with Leon, the red portrait is one of my all-time favorites.

I believe the previous two posts are what is referred to these days as a "mic drop".

Well played indeed.

I know holy cow. That is impressive

Dang, feeling kinda inadequate just having one of each of these. :D

At least the Bat On is the only one out there from Mr. Carter's collection though...

From My Wife's Collection

I have a few Cobb items that I enjoy.

While on a business trip, my grandfather got the autograph for his teen-aged son (my dad).

Both of the m113's pale in comparison to Tom's signed m114.

Everyone's least favorite Cobb...not mine, thankfully.

My favorite image of Cobb. Likely from an event in Georgia. (Not in my collection, but I wish it was.)

I was wondering when a T3 would make an appearance. Just a beautiful example of an exquisite card.

Tom C

Thank you Tom.

The Cobb green only comes with 8 different backs, and 6 of them are either Piedmont or Sweet Caporal. That is still an amazing group.

Speaking of multiple backs, where are Jaime's Cobbs?

Tony---The crisp picture registration and the rich colors of your T-3 and Cracker Jack Cobbs are 10 out of 10---simply marvelous! ---Brian Powell

Thank you Brian. It's what made me snag them both when I saw them as well.

Jeez everyone has some pretty amazing stuff. Anyone want to donate something to me 😆😀😅

My only Cobb, but would like to add a Green T 206, great items as usual guys !

<a href="http://s179.photobucket.com/user/hughmurphy/media/IMG_5140.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w286/hughmurphy/IMG_5140.jpg" border="0" alt="M 116 panel, Wagner/Cobb/Dooin photo IMG_5140.jpg"/></a>

Does anyone have a list of all possible T206 Cobb's ( all 4 with all possible back combo's ) ? Thanks

I think there are around 58 different backs for t206 cobb

Uffda is right! Very nice!

Go to T206resourse.com and check under CHECKLIST. They have a Searchable Database that will allow you to enter Cobb and search each card for all backs.

I bet Ted could name them all from memory. :cool:

..

A Mino and Mello. Very nice!!!!

Lots of amazing Cobbs in this thread! What I find even more amazing is the near absence, thus far, of Cobbs from the b & w, real-photo sets of the late teens and 1920's! I'd sure love to see some more of these (FYI, I don't have any of these - lotsa WaJos, but no Cobbs!).

WOW!!!! Would like to see bigger scans! Front and BACKS

Not just my best Cobb's, but my only Cobb's ...

If it doesn't have to be card specific, I love these Ty Cobb previously owned snapshots of he and his wife that I picked up this year....
