Graded VG 3 by GAI. Outstanding T206 White Border of Detroit Tigers Hall of Famer Ty Cobb featuring an Old Mill advertising reverse. Though Old Mill isn't normally considered a rare advertising back, several subjects are rarely found with an Old Mill back, and this is one of them. This well-centered example exhibits a bright green background, excellent registration, and slightly rounded corners. The important advertising reverse is boldly printed and clean. This is a superb Hall of Fame example of this tough Old Mill subject. Please note we do not see any blatant signs of alteration, which is often a concern with cards graded by companies other than PSA or SGC.
