Are you thinking of the fake 1921 Cobb? That’s a PSA 6MK. With the $5 written on the back in pencil.

Thank you, Jeffrey, and my apologies.

The card you posted on 7-20-2009 at 09:58 PM is the Cobb I saw at the Robert Morris show the next to last Saturday in May 1999. In case anybody wonders, although the October show has gone away and the show has moved to Monroeville, the one constant is the show always begins the third Friday of May.

One more note:

There were a few of the group in the case in May 1999 that were not marked in price on the back. Do I have a memory of which? No. Do I have a memory of the Cobb. YES! Yes, I handled the card.

LOL!

Now, now, now. Even the fakes from "1921" (sarcasm highlighted in quotation marks) have second floor. Let's remember fraud etiquette.

2nd floor is the location of the Boys dept. where the cards were given out with the purchase of a boy's suit. That's how department stores worked. It's not an address.

Scott,

Thank you and I understand, but you may want to rephrase the response, because the poster before me made the argument no address must be a fraud.

OMG, that was me also, and it was joke.
