Lot # 28: 1909-1911 T206 White Border Ty Cobb Portrait Green Background PSA Authentic - Old Mill Back

Very desirable T206 White Border of Detroit Tigers Hall of Famer Ty Cobb with an Old Mill advertising reverse. The green background pose has long been considered the rarest of the four poses of Cobb in the T206 set. The fact that this example features an uncommon Old Mill advertising reverse makes it of particular note. To date, PSA has only graded 12 examples of the green background Cobb featuring this back. The offered example exhibits a beautiful green background, a crisp image, and light corner wear. The important advertising reverse is boldly printed and clean. Encapsulated as "Authentic-Altered" by PSA due to being trimmed along multiple edges. This is a very appealing scarce-back example of this classic Ty Cobb tobacco card, worthy of even the most advanced Ty Cobb, Hall of Fame, or T206-back collection
