Ive owned around 300 CJ's,

I only have one.

I really like them, but they weren't easy to come by earlier in my collecting and once they started getting expensive while easier to find they were always just a bit beyond what I would usually spend.

The 'ed' on the end of "owned" is the key...Im currently sitting on 147 with #148 being hand delivered tomorrow!

I purchased a huge high-grade lot (most of the set) from Mastro many years ago, so got a great look. I found the images to be hit or miss - some, like Rousch and Baker, are among the best on any card anywhere; others are blah to yechh. In general, the portraits are superb.

Regarding Peter's poster-Cobb - I was within inches of buying it, but couldn't determine if the image was printed the same way as the regular CJ's. If I had gotten a 'yes', I would have bought it. Great pick-up.

thanks scott...in comparing to other regular CJ cobbs the color is slightly different...could be scan...but I would expect that the stock is different...which could account for this?

It was close enough for me...for the $$$!!!
