Well, I guess I was even more of a sucker than I thought. To my eye the fifth man from the left (the fourth in uniform) looked like Cobb. At least 30 years ago (or whenever it was I bought this).

And to be clear I KNOW no one is Cobb, I was not looking to be rescued from my bad purchase. It was just an example of how people (me and the dealer...although he did have financial motive for his assessment) can come to an incorrect conclusion based on facial similarity.
