awesome card rman! hopefully this gets in the right hand (and not an amateur like urself) so that wrinkle can be spooned out and be in the 50 holder it deserves to be. gotta be careful tho the paper stock on e98s flake off quite easily, i've ruined 3-4 e98 cobbs that way

Unfortunately I have not earned my doctorate, so my prefix is simply Mr.
Mr. Rman, or Mr. Dude. I guess Dr. Dude would be Double D's, and hopefully I will never earn that title in my lifetime. As for spooning, I have been known to do it once in awhile, but it certainly is not with cardboard. And who would want a concave piece of cardboard in a 50 holder anyway? |

HA! Great card! I owned this Cobb and have a sad story about this card while it was in my care at The National in Chicago. I would be proud to have this beauty in my collection, again. Good luck! Dan

Dan, when something goes from a 60 holder quality to a 30 holder "while in your care," I start thinking I should pick up the phone and call child protective services.

Well, I'm a tad emarassed, but I creased the card. It was in a PSA 2 holder because of the paper loss on the back. I broke it out and gave it back to PSA (2 times). Still a 2. I broke it out and gave it to SGC. Yep, another 30/2. OK, one last time... I broke it out and attempted to put in a soft sleeve when I bent it. It's a sad story. I never had any intention to sell it, and looking back obviously should have left it alone. It was my favorite card for 3 years before that National. After causing such harm I had it crossed into a GAI 3 holder and sold it for $3,300.00 (I couldn't look at what I had done, so I had to sell it), which by the way was the same amount I was offered by 2 different people when it wasn't creased and in a PSA holder. Live and learn! Since the "incident" I have not broken a holder to release a card, and probably never will.

wow that sucks DK, clearly you are still an amateur. imo it still wouldn't look out of place in a 3 holder in its current state, and blue is prettier than red or orange...good luck rman!
