Why are there so many "New" T206 Ty Cobb back found recently? There's a new one on REA and there's another one on eBay as well. These Ty Cobb backs are now become commons.

I guess like anything items come out of the woodwork when prices go through the roof. The REA’s Cobb can’t technically be considered “new” as it was publicized in 1990…though yes it was just in the local paper.

Interesting story of how the Cobb backs came to be in the eBay description.

I remember the Lucky 7 find a while back and PSA made promos of them. I got one at the PSA lunch at the National.

For $18,000,000, I'd at least like to see it sitting in a PSA or SGC holder.
