The comma definitely is in different positions on each card. The SGC Cobb looks exactly as you would expect it to look; the PSA one does have a bit of a different feel to it. The "D" on one is very gray, and black on the other.
These are of course just observations, I also don't know what to make of the discrepancies. |

The REA Cobby is looking right at me...the Goodwin Cobb is looking up and to the left.

Hey guys, I have at least two T206's that have the background color spilling over the framed border of the card.
So, that upper left printing flaw is not unusual. Also, if you compare many Red Cobb's, you will find an occasional one with the coma lining up with his uniform's seam line. Since I had a real close-up look at this card back in the March Philly Show, the thing that strikes me is the darker Red background color, as compared to all other Red Cobb cards.

It seems odd, to me anyhow, and I don't know what to make of it, that one card has so many apparent anomalies. Perhaps none of them in isolation is significant, or perhaps even none in combination, but when they coincide on such a valuable card, it seems fair at least to be having the discussion.

That isn't unusual though. Due to the printing process, many T206s have registration issues with the eyes. On different examples of the same card, the eyes can be looking straight ahead, up, down, left or right. It's just the way they were printed. Steve |

Ok, thanks. I just learned 2 new things. First, about the eyes, and second that the term "registration" doesnt just refer to the thin black line between the white border and the background. |
