Graded VG 40 by SGC. Mid-grade example of this classic tobacco card of Detroit Tigers Hall of Famer Ty Cobb featuring a desirable Old Mill advertising back. The T206 Ty Cobb bat-off-shoulder pose is one of the key cards in the set. The offered card has vibrant colors, outstanding registration, and moderate corner wear. The important advertising reverse is boldly printed. Spots of surface wear along the front contribute to the assigned grade. This is an appealing scarce-back example of this iconic Ty Cobb tobacco card from the T206 White Border series.
