Sharp and bright T206 "red background" Cobb, one of the most important and highly desirable cards in the entire T206 issue.  Some light soiling and corner wear, most pronounced at the top left, are largely responsible for the grade.  Some minor surface abrasions are evident on the front, more pronounced on the reverse, where a few small spots of paper loss are visible.  Surface soiling is also apparent on the reverse, however, the card on the whole is quite pleasing.
