Continuing the Ty Cobb/Ty Cobb back debate

Posted By: Ted Zanidakis

Thanks for all the info you have presented. I am still researching it. It would be nice to find some tobacco product or
T-card (sports or non-sports) with Factory 33 printed on it.
The only such item that we know of, is the Ty Cobb Cut Plug Tobacco Tin. Printed on it is Factory 33, 4th District, NC.

I am skeptical, however, that the Ty Cobb/Ty Cobb card was ever intended to be in this tin. The advertising on this tin
depicts Cobb in a batting pose, rather than his Red portrait. Also, there is no advertising on this tin stating the "King of
the Smoking Tobacco World" (as the back of the card states). Usually, the premium (T-card) associated with a tobacco
product is printed with the same advertising.
