I have owned 2 of these T206 Cobb "color errors" over the years.
I sold the real nice one I had, and kept the lesser one.

That is all they are....a printing "flaw", in that the final inking pass
to create the normal deep Red background was skipped. Proof of this,
is that the backs of these Orange versions always conform to the
catalogued backs of the Red Cobb.

If this Orange Cobb were some rare issue (such as the Cobb/Ty Cobb back),
then it would be in a different Series and have its own distinct back.
