Default Why Cobb/Cobb?

Posted By: JimB

Yes, there were a group of 5 found in Georgia and offered in a Robert Edward Auction in 1997. I believe there are now 12 known in total. The fact that those five were all found in Georgia suggests that perhaps Ty Cobb brand tobacco was offered for a limited time in the home state of the Geogia Peach.
