Well, Don, keep in mind that Cobb's career started well after 1902; the W600s were issued from 1902 through 1911. Jerry Spillman wrote a great article in OC which helps narrow down the approximate dates in which each W600 was issued. Cobb's was not issued probably until 1907 at the earliest -- which allows for other of his cards to be viewed as his first. Joe's Wolverine I thought was issued in 1908 (along with the other Wolverine pose, below). There is also speculation that the W555s were issued around 1907 or 1908 (below). And what about the Dietche cards (below) and the HM Taylor card (below)? I guess the point is, without steering this thread into a discussion about Cobb's rookie card, is that so many of the HOFers could have multiple "first" cards -- though I agree that Cy Young, unfortunately, does not.
