Graded EX-MT 6 by PSA. Presented is one of vintage-card collecting's most recognizable icons and one of the key cards of the 1915 E145 Cracker Jack series: #30 Ty Cobb. Besides being the second most valuable card in the set (behind Joe Jackson), it is also one of the most desirable and striking of all Ty Cobb cards. This example is bright and crisp, both front and back, with bold colors, flawless registration, four strong corners, and centering to the right. Light caramel staining is visible on front and back (more advanced). This is an attractive example of card #30 Ty Cobb in an extremely desirable high-grade. The classic Cracker Jack set is considered by many to be the most beautiful card set ever issued. The E145 Ty Cobb has always and will always be in high demand, especially a desirable high-grade example such as this. This is one of card collecting's great classics and would be a worthy addition to any high-grade Cracker Jack, Ty Cobb, or Hall of Fame collection. Reserve $5,000. Estimate $10,000+.
