Graded VG-EX+ 4.5 by PSA. Exceptional T206 White Border of Detroit Tigers Hall of Famer Ty Cobb with a desirable El Principe De Gales advertising reverse. The Red Background pose has long been considered one of the great classics of the T206 set and of all vintage cards. The fact that this example features an uncommon El Principe advertising reverse makes it of particularly special note. This well-centered example boasts a brilliant red background, excellent registration, and even corner wear. The important advertising reverse is boldly printed. This is a fantastic scarce-back example of this classic Ty Cobb tobacco card, worthy of even the most advanced Ty Cobb, Hall of Fame, or T206-back collection.
