Sold For: $93,000
Year: 1909
Auction: 2023 Fall
Lot #: 8
Auction: Prewar Baseball - T Tobacco Cards
Graded NM 7 by PSA. High-grade example of what is recognized as one of Ty Cobb's more striking cards. The red-background pose is one of the classics of the T206 set and of all vintage cards. This card has a brilliant red background, outstanding registration, and strong corners with light touches of wear (weaker top right). Boldly printed Sweet Caporal 350-460/25 advertising reverse has a small surface flaw in the lower portion. A very attractive high-grade example of one of the key cards from the premier tobacco issue of the 1910 era. This T206 Cobb red-background portrait would make a significant addition or upgrade to virtually any world-class T206, vintage Hall of Famer, or Ty Cobb card collection. Opening Bid $25,000.
