Help with Goodwin Cobb Blank Back

This is breaking news from a call I just received from Joe T. at the White Plains show. Good luck to anyone going for the card.

Wow, an auction house pulling a suspect lot without being dragged, kicking and screaming, to do the right thing.

Jeff, don’t be so harsh some of these auction houses are very sensitive I would hate to see you hurt someone’s feelings.

Nothing against SGC, but I would still want to see this card in person myself given it’s look. Felt the same way about the blue Old Mill when I made an offer. Nice to know SGC liked the item but I need to review it as well etc.

Best of luck to the seller. Resubmitting was a good call and now entombed with SGC backing it twice should help him get top dollar. I don't want the card to be faked/altered so hopefully the grader is correct. I'm just more and more skeptical about new hobby finds.

New to auction maybe...new to the Hobby...only because the owner didn't show it off.

I vote skinned. I just don't trust tpgs or auction houses, and that Cobb has too many red flags.

How did they determine it is a T206 and not a T214?

T214s have blue captions on front.
