The McGraw/orange portrait gets a nice boost over his red background. Seems to be 3-4x the price depending on grade.

WTF r u gys talking about? True...radical color differences in T206 command a large premium. Kevins "Orange" cobb is definitely "oranger" than the normal red...but is not "orange" enough to command a large premium...in my opinion.

My own sale. The price I was quoted from someone who has two of them and another previous sale I could find. They were all in line with each other

Just love this Tinker with the Lon Chaney like look to him, beat up right face and the off colors. I added a typical one(not mine) for comparison.

An SGC 60 Eddie Collins--in a nice purple--just went for about $800 in last night's Leon auction--or about twice the normal....Seems about right?
