Graded VG-EX 4 by PSA. One of only two examples of this front/back combination graded at this level by PSA with none higher. Exceptional T206 White Border of Detroit Tigers Hall of Famer Ty Cobb (bat off shoulder) with a very desirable Cycle 460 advertising reverse. The T206 Ty Cobb bat-off-shoulder pose is one of the most striking Cobb cards in all of card collecting. The fact that this example features an uncommon Cycle 460 advertising reverse makes it of particularly special note. The offered card exhibits brilliant colors, outstanding registration, and honest corner wear. The important Cycle 460 advertising reverse is boldly printed. This is a stunning 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. Opening Bid $5,000.
