I don't know if it's real but here's a little PSA article that mentions both Cobb and the F.R.Penn co https://www.psacard.com/articles/art...inauctions-com.

Very attractive box. But I do not believe it ever shipped Ty Cobb tins. Just to much. Built like a piece of furniture rather than a utilitarian box for shipping $2.40 worth of tobacco tins. Printed shipping labels for every customer?

I would love for this to be real but I just don't buy it. Way too much effort put in for something mass produced. Plus it's so clean. I would expect it to look more like this if there were any surviving.

Default Outstanding!

Man, somebody really made a gorgeous piece of functional art, whether it was yesterday or 100 years ago. Of course, the mind rebels at the very idea this could be real, but those tins had to be shipped in something, didn't they? There's so much information on this thing, who can find a fly in the ointment? Otherwise, I don't know...
