Description

Graded EX/NM+ 6.5 by PSA. Stunning high-grade example of this classic tobacco card of Hall of Famer Ty Cobb. The green-background pose has long been considered the rarest of the four poses of Cobb in the T206 set. The offered card has bright colors, a crisp image, and strong corners with light touches of wear (weaker bottom right). Boldly printed Sweet Caporal 150/30 advertising reverse. A striking example of one of Cobb's most popular cards from the premier tobacco issue of the 1910 era.
