Sold For: $93,000
Year: 1909
Auction: 2023 Summer
Lot #: 6
Auction: Prewar Baseball - T Tobacco Cards
Graded NM/MT 8 by SGC. One of only five graded at this level with just one (Old Mill back) grading higher! Stunning ultra-high-grade example of what is recognized as one of Ty Cobb's most striking cards. The red-background pose has long been considered one of the great classics of the T206 set and of all vintage cards. This card boasts vibrant colors, outstanding registration, and four strong corners. Boldly printed Sweet Caporal 350/30 advertising reverse. Any high-grade T206 card is an important condition rarity, but a NM/MT example of one of the key cards from the premier tobacco issue of the 1910 era is especially noteworthy and desirable. 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 $50,000.
