Default Where did the Cobb/Ty Cobb back card originate ?

Posted By: Pennsylvania Ted

You are "near" correct......upon close observation of the stylized design in the lower center (below
the lettering), of the American Beauty (AB) and the Ty Cobb (TC) backs; there is a close similarity.
The AB has this design accented with two symmetrically swirled lines (see scan).

This same exact design is also found on all the Broad Leaf, Cycle and Drum backs.
