You're All Right - Matty Dark, Cobb Red/Orange, Johnson Port
 
Posted By: <b>Brian</b><p>Long time lurker, infrequent poster.<br /><br />Find it pretty amusing that three of the cards mentioned as being the most owned are 3 of the 4 T206 HOFs I have. Can't beat these three cards - unless that is you have enough money to afford Honus.<br /><br />BTW, anyone else out there have an "orange" Cobb? What sort of premium if any do these bring? <br /><br />Brian<br /><br /><img src="http://photobucket.com/albums/bb184/becollie/th_T206CobbOrange.jpg">

Posted By: <b>JimB</b><p>Brian,<br />Welcome to the board. I used to own an Orange Cobb and sold it last year at the National. You really need to find the right buyer for a card like that; they are out there. I had a bit of tough time personally. When I did finally find a buyer, it drew about a 70% premium on what an ordinary red one would go for in the same condition. I think they are great cards and am surprised more people are not interested. This card has been discussed in the past here and I think four or five board members have orange Cobbs<br />JimB

Posted By: <b>Pennsylvania Ted</b><p>Welcome aboard....years ago I had 2 Orange background Cobb's. A real nice one (Ex) and the one shown here.<br />Like Jim, I sold the nice one. For the right customer you can expect at least 50% more than the Red Cobb (for<br />equal condition cards).<br /><br />This one is about as orange as you'll find one....and, it has the look of a "snow scene".<br /><br /><img src="http://www.freephotoserver.com/v001/tedzan/cobborange.jpg">

Posted By: <b>peter chao</b><p>Brian,<br /><br />Welcome aboard. It looks like you've pretty much called it, it's going to be very close between all three cards.<br /><br />Peter

Posted By: <b>Scott Levy</b><p>For the record my dad and I collect T206s and we consider the orange cobb to be part of that set (but I think we're alone in that philosophy). We have an orange one in a psa 5.
