Is there a known T206 red Cobb with an F. Scott Fitzgerald back stamp? Wish me luck at auction, gang. I don't even know which cards to go for.

This is flat out incredible. Read through this entire thread today. I'm overjoyed you were able to accomplish your collecting goal! I'm afraid to ask what's next!

Personally I would love to see this in the Hall of Fame, I think it should deserve a nice display in the Shoebox Treasures section of the Hall!

I keep looking at the pics and am blown away that you completed the entire run.

This is the best of the best - there is no better back run, period (considering the player and the total number of combos).

Hey Everyone

Just seeing all the replies. Thank you everyone for the kind words. I am thrilled to see the run is being enjoyed by others. Answering a few comments made by others.

The run already includes the Cobb back.... it’s shown on the right hand side of the photo.

There are no red cobb cards in the T215 set. That set only has the Cobb bat off pose.

I set up the T206s on the left hand side of the picture because the T206 set was the earlier set. The t213 type 1, 2 and 3 came out in 1910-1919.... and T214 was 1915.

My ideal way to show the cards would be one long row where you have to walk several steps to enjoy the entire set. With a slow rotating stand so the fronts and backs can be enjoyed. Or a clear box like display so you can walk on both sides and view fronts and backs.


Thanks again for the comments. It has been a fun journey. And very surreal that I was able to complete it.

Ridiculous Jamie...I'm just stunned at your accomplishment. This is the kind of stuff I just love hearing...collectors attaining their goal and then improving on it!

Congratulations!

Bill

How does this Cobb run compare to Brady Hill's run? I think Hill's run has all the T206s but not sure whether he has others.
