SGC graded authentic 1911-16 T216 Ty Cobb Kotton Cigarettes, serial #1224752-003. Card not given numerical grade due to being trimmed - SGC. Card measurements are 2 and 3/4" x slightly longer than 1 and 1/2"(but less than 1 and 9/16"). SCD specs are 2 and 5/8" x 1 and 1/2". Two measurements along each side showed same results.
Card also has a half inch back wrinkle at top above TT in KOTTON; does not go through to front.
Card also has tiny wrinkle at elbow level, bat side. Very tough to see unless you use correct light, magnification and angle.
Upper right and left corners have some softness.
Several C=C double bonds have poor sp hybridization orbitals (funny if you took organic chemistry).
Great looking card. Gloss, registration, centering are very nice; no paper loss, writing.
$1200
Can send larger scans to interested parties so they can view it better.
Will answer questions in morning. Drove 6 hours to see E107 Wagner at Ft Washington show this morning. Must check ebay to see if I can get a life.
