Default D304 Cobb vs. 1914 CJ Cobb

I own a SGC 20 D304 Cobb (general baking back), but have slowly started debating selling it to buy a 1914 Cracker Jack Cobb in similar condition.

1) What would you rather own?
2) Do you value the cards all things equal the same value wise?

Appreciate any opinions as I continue to debate....

Taylor

Personally, I'm not a fan of the General Baking Cobb photo.. you can barely see his face. I'd go after the CJ. But that's just me!

I think the D304 is a great looking card. My personal favorite image of any Cobb card I have seen. Can't really go wrong either way though. I would much rather sell something else and have both in my collection if possible.

I've always found many of the D304s, including the Cobb, to look a little cartoonish. Yet, I still like the D304 more.

I'm a big CJ Cobb card fan... one of my Holy Grails that I'll likely never have.

I also am not a huge fan of the d304 pose...it's never been one of my favorites. The CJ is a classic pose in an awesome set...this is my preference.

Mine is cut from ad ad sheet.
