Ted ZanidakisThis 1907 Post Card of Ty Cobb precedes any other type of card depicting him.
Included in this 1st set of Detroit players (produced by Dietsche of Detroit)
is a 2nd postcard of Cobb in a fielding pose.
Obviously, these cards are not premiums inserted in packs of cigarettes, gum,
or candy; so, some in our hobby do not consider them as "true rookie" cards
of Cobb. And, that's fine with me, I am not taking sides in this debate. But,
I'm curious what the prevailing thinking regarding this postcard is....is it,
or is it not....a legitimate collectible to be considered as his Rookie ?
