Graded VG-EX 4 by PSA. Very attractive mid-grade example of one of Detroit Tigers Hall of Famer Ty Cobb's most striking cards. The red background pose is considered one of the classics of the T206 set and all vintage cards. The offered card has a brilliant red background, excellent registration, and honest corner wear. The Piedmont 360-460/25 advertising reverse is boldly printed and clean. The red background Cobb portrait is one of the key cards in the set, and this example would be a highlight in a high-quality T206, Hall of Famer, or Ty Cobb card collection.
