I missed Chicago's other post so I thought Jim may have been talking to me.
I have a hard time telling when the member ChicagoT206 is trying to push peoples buttons, but it appears as though he may have been with his recent posts yesterday. It's fine to ponder the questions of 100 year old tobacco cards with other collectors on here ChicagoT206, but it's not right to try to pick fights with people or to muddy the waters of this forum with trash talk or nonsense. If you are truly new to collecting these cards and want to learn something sit back and read others posts for awhile and then ask questions. While collecting experience shouldn't disqualify one from participating in this forum, it does give credence to a persons opinion based on their experience. As I stated before, I've never owned a Cobb backed card and have not had a desire to, but I find it absolutely interesting figuring out when , where, why, and how many of these cards were produced. I also find it relevant to discuss the recent prices garnered by these cards in auctions as it reflects upon the card market in general ( vintage cards, that is).
