Scam Artist??? (1921 Herpolsheimer Cobb)
Posted By: <b>fkw</b><p>OK, first off I bid and was runner up on a card that I thought was supposed to be a one of a kind. I didnt have time before, but now I did some research.<br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=250199510830" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=250199510830</a><br /><br /><br />As most of you know the 1921 Herpolsheimer cards were just discovered in Oct. 2004. There were 68 total cards in discovery and not a single duplicate. Today this auction above ended and it would have been the first player known that had more than one card known. There is a Cobb thats not trimmed (originally sold 10/2004 for $1526) and now after looking at this sellers prior auctions I see he deal alot in fake cards.<br /><br /><B>My question, whoever owns the full size Herpolsheimer Cobb card that sold back in Oct. 2004, can you please check the back and see if the pencil written "$5" on back matches this trimmed card exactly. Is it a fake that was copied from the authentic card??</B><br /><br />My main reason for asking is because he seems to have sold alot of fakes in the past, but now there is another card I would like to bid on listed right now, and Im wondering if it is a fake made from a stolen scan or something.<br /><br />Thanks in advance for any info on the Herpolsheimer Cobb (full size).<br /><br />Frank
