Graded VG-EX 4 by PSA. Classic Ty Cobb card from the T205 Gold Border series, one of the most popular of all 1910-era tobacco issues, in high grade for this issue. This is a beautiful example of one of card collecting's most classic cards, from what is perhaps card collecting's single most condition-sensitive issue. Cobb is not just the most valuable card in the set, it also one of the best known and popular of all Ty Cobb cards. This example displays vibrant colors, outstanding registration, honest corner wear, and centering toward the right. The Piedmont advertising reverse is boldly printed and clean. One of the remarkable things about card collecting is that some of the hobby's greatest classics can be found in various grades and nice examples can sometimes be purchased without spending a fortune! This is a superb mid-grade example of the key card from this extremely condition-sensitive set. Reserve $10.
