Show us your Cobbs

[Mase]

Found these in a house I recently purchased, I'm still trying to figure out the names of the different cards that were found. I believe these are t227 & t206

It is a T206, but show us the back of the card.

[Mase]

Unfortunately the kid who collected these signed his name on many of them (Edward) or ed.

Seriously? Where did you find them in the house? What other cards were with them?

[Mase]

There was a door in a closet in one of the upstairs bedrooms that opened into a storage area. It's kind of like an attic but not...lol
There were 27 w516 strip cards I believe 4 of them were boxers
86 t206 cards most of them had sweet caporal backs 2 had base ball gum John h. Dockman
1 American Carmel co
2 Piedmont backs
1 polar bear
3 different cards had gold borders
12 center pictures of I think they are Hassan triple fold, only 3 cards that I believe go to the triple fold cards but I haven't had time to go through center pictures
19 t227 cards all miners extra backs
43 t219 boxing pugilist cards 1 has Hassan back the rest are miners extra
39 miners extra heroes of history
3 miners extra men and women of history
45 miners extra men of history
104 American Carmel company e123 cards
This is the box they were in.

Holy crap! Nice find!!

[GasHouseGang]

Great find! Need more pics and they don’t have to be just Cobbs.

[tiger8mush]

very cool, Mase! start a new thread with some pics of more of the cards, we'd all be interested in seeing them!

Nice find. Sounds like the gold border cards are T205. The Dockman cards are candy cards classified E92. And I am guessing the American Caramel cards are probably E90-1. We of course would love to see some more pictures of the cards.

+1...amazing!

[Mase]

I will try to start a new thread, I won't be able to add all the pics until tomorrow or Saturday. Here is a group pic of some that I've started to put into better hoders I think. I don't really know what I should put them in but these are better than just binder pages I put them in a few days after I found them I too a closer pic of the baseball cards

Justin, I thought you had warned Ty to lay off the weed.

I just messaged Cliff (Marslife), he will appreciate the find.

Bruce Brown (Auto Racer) is pretty rare. Not sure if that is the one you're thinking of.

[Mase]

Thanks Brian

Nice find! How often do you see an original collection still in a cigar box?? Very cool, I hope it all stays together.

Sorry for the bad pic, but best I could do from phone. I believe it’s a 1 of 1 (until another is found in some attic in Philly....)

Nice find Mase!

There are 24 known cards in the set, the miners extra backs are a little harder to find than the honest long cut backs. The two tough cards are not in your lot unfortunately. Bruce Brown (auto driver) and c.p. Rodgers (aviator).

Nice Cobby! You got it at a gr8 price!!!
