Default Unusual Ty Cobb Card

The description says it might be the last example on earth. I think I might believe them.

Can't see how they can say it is a tobacco card and can barely see that it is Ty Cobb.

However, the better buy is the Jimmie Foxx Diamond Stars tobacco card that clearly says reprint on the back at the bottom.

I reported it and the Babe Ruth card a day or two ago. It's still up?

Goes back some 90 plus years

Found at an estate sale back in 2007 or 2008

Nice.

To be fair he also says it's "ONE OF MY BEST ESTATE SALE FINDS OF ALL TIME", so maybe this is just a sophisticated, subliminal, psa (not PSA, you sickos) announcement, warning us of the dangers of both Estate Sales, and Joe Orlando's (ok, maybe you guys were on to something) influence on our hobby.

Sometimes you just have to look past the simplicity of the listing.

It is 9O (that's an O that is used, not a zero) + years.
In 99% of the the past auctions, the seller uses an O in place of a zero, with few exceptions. Maybe I should start searching on Ebay using Os instead of 0s with the hopes of finding some hidden gem.

They had a 60's Don Kessinger listed and noted that he was the last player/manager in the American League. I guess Rose was the last I can think of in the NL?
They should bring back the player/manager. It would be great to see Altuve as the Astros manager right now instead of Hinch.
