Posted By: <b>ty_cobb</b><p>Anyone own a 350 series back Ty Cobb with <BR>the green background? Is it more scarce<BR>than the 150 series back?

Posted By: <b>kyle lentine</b><p>I believe the scarcity would depend on the cigarette brand on the back as well as the factory it came from. Here is a list of scarcity depending on cigarette back and factory. <a href="http://www.t206museum.com/page/price_list2.html" target=_new>http://www.t206museum.com/page/price_list2.html</a>

Posted By: <b>ty_cobb</b><p>In the 150 series the card should be available<BR>w. Piedmont, Sweet Cap, Sovereign, El Principe<BR>de gales, Old Mill, and the brown Hindu.<BR><BR>In the 350 series no other brands issue it,<BR>and it is dropped early from production,<BR>possibly in 1909. <BR><BR>My thoughts are its a time related issue<BR>because it is likely it was issued for a <BR>longer period of time in the 150 series<BR>than in the 350 series.<BR><BR>If that is the case, a Sovereign 350 series<BR>green background Cobb would be a very difficult<BR>card to acquire for example.<BR>
