Tango Eggs Weaver/Tinker

Here's a Copy of the Lettar from the Original Find!
Seems there MiGHT Be a Mr. Tinker Out there Somewhere!?

And Yes, I do Believe THaT Mr. Cobb is "1/1"!!!
At Least THaT's WHaT the Lettar States...
I know THaT Bryan D.(aka: BCD)
Mention'd THaT He had one Sum Years Ago...

Maybe Jerry Could Confirm THaT His Mr. Cobb Came From BCD!?
If Not, Possibly 2 of'em!?

The Cobb didn't come from BcD, I know the provenance and it was a "find" a few years ago, not part of the original find outlined in the letter. Same with my Oakes and I suspect Jerry's Plank.
There are also 2 Morgans in existence, at the minimum.
I'd bet the set is complete at 48, but we'll never know for sure until they are all found, and that seems unlikely.

I won the Cobb I believe from Goodwin a few years and I think that the Cobb originally came from a dealer in the New Orleans area(Metairie) who wouldn't say yes or no when I asked him...the Plank came from Goodwin as well I think....if I remember correctly BCD has also seen a few Cobb Nadjas

[Griffins]

The Plank was REA April '12
The Cobb was Goodwin, I think April '10 or '11.

[gabrinus]

Anthony, you are right about the Plank being from REA...my brain fails me sometime....thanks.......Jerry

I get that often as well, but seem to remember the ones that got away much clearer than the ones I won. Congrats on a couple of incredible rare cards.

We always remember the bad more than the good. It's the "one that got away."

Here's the front page from the August 1992 issue of The Old Judge. Note the last paragraph where it is mentioned that a Tango Cobb was presented at auction but didn't sell...

(Also interesting to note that the letter that Denny posted dates the find to 1993...guess they were off by a year.

Cheers,
Steve

Who would know how rare Cobby would turn out to be?
