The backs are simple. Split down the middle with the word "Postcard" up top. I don't have a scan of a back.

Extremely rare PC796's
Steve, I completely agree with Jeff--the pop reports he states are completely accurate, with an average of about 6 of each card being graded. As they are getting to be fairly valuable, you would think that if more are out there, they would be getting graded and placed in some of the leading auctions, but instead they are rarely seen. Rob Lifson characterized them as extremely rare in the last REA auction, and he would likely know their actual rarity as well as anyone. I have the Walter Johnson, and have saved e-bay searches out for cards from this set, but only the very same handful of cards keep showing up. Over the long-term, with the growing acceptance and popularity of postcards, I would say their growth potential re value is very good. My personal opinion is that you will probably never see an average of 30-some of each card in the pop reports, and 20's may even be unlikely.
The fact that Jeff has 5 certainly doesn't impugn his credibility in this respect, as he has a lot of very rare and desireable items, such as a 1907 Dietsche Cobb Fielding Position graded ex, which has significantly better eye appeal than my own example of the card in the same PSA grade. Combined PSA and SGC pop reports for the Dietsche Cobb Fielding Position were 8, the last time I checked. I think that Jeff also has all of the other Cobb rookie postcards, which are also quite rare, with the exception of the batting position Dietsche, which is better described as scarce to very scarce (it is tough in VG-EX or better). As you can probably tell, I am a fan of his collection! Unfortunately, I probably won't be making the Ann Arbor meeting, as I have just too many appeal briefs due in too few days, and will likely be working. Hope you guys that attend have a great time! Happy collecting, Larry Last edited by ls7plus; 10-15-2011 at 05:28 PM.

I use to collect the set 10 years ago and also owned that Brown. They weren't quite as popular then, but have always been an attractive set for PC collectors.
That Wag/Cobb pose is the most popular. If you want that pose, you may want to try the larger M supplement piece. There's also a good article on them in an old VCBC with a nice gallery. Good luck! Rob
