Default shammus----Same Card

In the thread of November, 2014, Shammus posted a pic...which looks exactly as the one I am asking about. My phone flash may have distorted the color but it is the same card (as well as being a blank back). Nothing else was discussed after his post. So, not sure the conclusion.

Yours doesn't look good. Better pics or scans could change that opinion.

I agree. We need better scans. I am not sure but the one posted today could be a reprint of the one posted on the board previously.

I hate to say it, but Leon's comment is exactly what I'm thinking. Here's a scan of my card. Notice that all the flaws mine has are replicated perfectly on the new card in the OP with a few additional ones added in. Specifically, the wrinkling above Ty's left shoulder, the hairline wrinkle right next to his left eye, the tiny scuff right at the base of his collar on the right side, the wrinkle in the lower left corner....all a perfect match it seems.

I should add, that my card is a blank back also and I feel there's maybe one other blank back out there which we never determined the origins for. It was a nice bit of detective work by a couple of our members to determine the origins of the version of this card that has the advertising on the back though....

Here is another blank back Cobb (this same pair also sold at Legendary in 2009). It lacks the writing in the background:

Good info..
Either the Cobb mentioned in the first post has a poor scan and the things around it aren't poorly scanned (not sure how that could be) or it is a reprint as the lithography isn't as crisp as the others are.

this is an e95...maybe cut from a sheet...not to be confused with the super tough cobb...without cobb caption at the bottom...with writing in middle most likely cut from a box.
