New Cobb ebay purchase

I just picked this Ty Cobb up on Ebay last week. Seems like a very interesting set that contains many Cuban players. Has anyone on here ever had any cards from this set?

  • Yes. I had a PSA 2 of that card which I sold a couple of years ago. Very frail cards. I have a Chuck Klein which I have yet to grade.
    I collect PSA graded 1980-81 Basketball.

    Tougher than most think. The only Neg is some players (Cobb, Ruth, Gehrig, Mathewson, etc.) that are pictured have long since been retired.


    Ive owned maybe 100 over the years, mostly the MLB players/HOFers.

    Here are some examples

    Ps there are 2 different border colors...Red-Orange, Yellow (yellow varies in brightness)

    There are back variations (notice the top title)

    My favorite, because I sort of discovered it, as far as I know. I reported it to Lemke about 8 years ago. The correct photo has dickey in the dark Yankee cap.
