The Truly "Tough" cards

[rman444]

A T216 Virginia Extra Cobb or Wagner. Never seen one and don't know if they even exist. A W600 Cobb as well. I have only seen one, and have never seen one publicly available.

Agreed on these rarities. As time goes on it seems our thoughts on card rarity change a bit. So far the Virginia Extra cards have never had any larger groups show up. I believe there was a group of about 5 on ebay, several years ago, but all had fairly major damage including the all important backs. I have only seen pics of the W600 Cobby.

This is my card. Has anyone seen another one? Is there a record of a transaction anywhere? Just curious.

This card was not listed in the SCD catalog a few years ago and now it is, but I don't know if others are known. I bought this at the time (10-12 years ago) because I was collecting Black Sox cards and really knew nothing about D303 and/or Mother's Bread. I may have stumbled onto someone's White Whale without realizing it.

I'm still looking for a Plowboy Frank Chance. I've seen a couple so I know they exist but they're not exactly easy to find.

Bruce,

There was another that sold in the D303 Mother's grouping from Mastro back in 2006.

No problem. It's Richard by the way.
