Just curious, how many of us need this Cobb Wolverine Postcard to complete the set?. Cobb Right Fielder. This is the only one I need.



I have a scan, not mine, but to large to post.

Ty Cobb, Spikes flying!

This one?

Yes, Bobby, that one.

Ty Cobb, Spikes flying!

not me.

but I want to know who gave cobby that scar above his eye.

I am starting work on the Wolverine set. A postally used Cobb finished up on Ebay about a month ago. As I recall, it was an estate find. I believe it went for around $400.00.

In regard to the scar... it could have been the result of his encounter with his teammate Charles Schmidt. The story goes that while new to the team Cobb made the mistake of getting into an altercation with teammate (and tough-guy) Charles Schmidt -- Cobb lost.

. . . on eBay, along with 10 or 11 other Tiger ballplayers from the 1907 Wolverine News postcard set. This Cobb too is postally used, with some writing at the bottom of the image.

dibs.

Me too.

already called it Paul, you'll have to wait for the next one.

I wish we had some lawyers on this board. I need to know if "dibs" is legal

Jeff, Paul,


All these years and I didn't even know Ebay worked that way. Wow!

Jeff,

I just stepped out of my time machine. I went back to yesterday and called dibs. So sorry.

I'm sure the seller is reading this thread and licking his chops.

I think you can use dibs and all is fine but there will be a personal foul for anyone using the word mojo..

The Cobb Wolverines are great cards, but I'd much rather have an M101-3 Sporting News Gregg, or Johnson/Street postcard. Therefore, I will pass on the Cobby.

well played Mike, well played.

guess I'll have to pass too.
