A very neat item that shows Cobb in his early years... but not his first "baseball card" to me.

If I had a Postcard of Mickey Mantle that was printed in 1950 with a picture of him in his Yankee uniform... there is no way that anyone would consider it to be his real rookie card.

Same would be true for a 1953 Postcard of Hank Aaron in his Braves uniform.
