ALS, one page, trimmed to a size of 6.5 x 7.5, personal letterhead, March 9, 1942. Cobb finds an old photo sent to him and writes to the sender. In full: “Should you receive this o.k. at this late date, you are to forgive me for my apparent delay in returning same to you, for strange as it may seem I have just today uncovered, found after being lost or misplaced or what not, the picture, photo, or what, not so good, I must have been in midst of a real game, but I feel honored you should want my autograph on a supposed likeness of myself so I hope I am forgiven for this seeming delay.” In very good condition, with aforementioned trimming, tape to horizontal edges, intersecting mailing folds, one passing through bottom portion of signature, scattered toning, and mounting remnants to reverse. Accompanied by a reproduction of the autographed photo mentioned in the letter of Cobb posing on the dugout steps in his Detroit uniform.
