Graded EX 5 (MC) by PSA. Very attractive example of this classic tobacco card of Hall of Famer Ty Cobb. The green background pose has long been considered the rarest of the four poses of Cobb in the T206 set. The offered example has vibrant colors, a crisp image, and light corner wear. Centered toward the extreme top, which accounts for the qualifier. The Sweet Caporal 150/30 advertising reverse is boldly printed. A strong example of one Cobb's most popular cards from the premier tobacco issue of the 1910 era.
