That is one fine looking 2.5 my friend. Happy New Year!

Thanks Ryan! It's almost half as cool as your 6.

HOLY SMOKES!!!!

that GC is a blazer

BIG congrats!!!


my theory watching the green cobbs over the last few years:

5 th big card in the set....Wagner, Doyle, Plank, Magie, Green Cobb


looks like this is becoming a reality.....green cobb will stay right behind the Magie in price and collectability....

get them greens while you can....they slowed down a bit, but will still keep appreciating right behind Magie......


A Magie in a 1 is a 6k-8 k card easy.....a green cobb similar maybe 3k....still more room to grow, then trail consistently behind the Magie....

Cobb- like Mantle and Ruth transcends the hobby.....it's a no brainer....

watch the other cobbs follow suit

One last pickup.

Thanks Johnny. I'm stoked to acquire this Green Cobb.

Believe it or not, I've collected T206 for almost 30 years, and this is my first Green Cobb. Obviously I could've acquired one along the way, but never found the right one, until now.

Mine pale in comparison to most of the others on this thread but my two favorites from 2018 were these:

Both are cards I've wanted for a long while. I got the Bender for my Bender collection and the Musial, well, I've always thought it was a beautiful a card as has been produced.


Here's hoping that Net54 folks have a prosperous and healthy 2019. And you all find that one card that's been on your list the longest.

Congrats on completing the set, Jon! Nothing like saving one of the toughest cards for last.

Solid HOFers there, Bob, and I agree that the '53 Musial has one of the best photos on a baseball card.
