Graded NM/MT 8 by SGC. This is the ONLY example of this front/back combination graded at this level by SGC with none higher! Stunning ultra-high-grade example of this classic tobacco card of Detroit Tigers Hall of Famer Ty Cobb from the T206 White Borders series. The T206 Cobb bat-on-shoulder pose is one of the key cards in the set and the second most valuable of the four Cobb cards in the T206 series. This card boasts vibrant colors, outstanding registration, and four strong corners. Boldly printed Piedmont 150/25 advertising reverse. Any high-grade T206 card is an important condition rarity, but a NM/MT example of one of the key cards from the premier tobacco issue of the 1910 era is especially noteworthy and desirable. This T206 Cobb bat-on-shoulder pose would make a significant addition or upgrade to virtually any world-class T206, vintage Hall of Famer, or Ty Cobb card collection.
