Is there provenance to prove that it's really the worst Cobb in the world, and that the pieces aren't quarter-Cobbs taken from two separate cards?

Facebook flipper: “Rare back Cobb. A+ eye appeal with excellent color, decent centering, and sharp image registration. Submitting for an MBA sticker if this doesn’t sell soon”
