Thanks John, Yours is nice too. I have been selling a lot of my Ty Cobb stuff, but not ready to let this one go yet.

+1 It's one of my favorite scrap cards.

alright, this card has caused me more angst than any other card in my T206 collection. I got it in a deal with a regarded board member who never misrepresented it...It's a shaky card. It passes the black light test and the dots hold up under magnification and SGC deemed it authentic but restored...I think was partially skinned at one point, which makes it pretty worthless, but it was really priced accordingly and has pretty good eye appeal, is authentic to the period and product and will do until a better one turns up.

It looks like the bottom right corner of the card was torn, then put back together.

"... A Gem Mint 10 is landlocked by its colossal borders. ..." Whoops, wrong thread.

Over time, the eye adjusts and smaller borders start to look normal. Neuroplasticity is on the side of the card doctors.
