Could this be a real Cobb auto?

It would have to be at least ca. 1970 for state sales tax to be even close to 7.3% anywhere in the US.

CC regularly slips up with these anachronisms on their "fantasy" pieces, not only with player lifespan issues but by their obsession with adding a date inscription indicating a time before an item was manufactured.

On the one hand, they probably researched the founding date of the company that printed the check (1921) and felt comfortable with that detail, but didn't do any research on sales tax data, half-azzing it by not doing so.
