Graded 40 VG 3 ("VG 3" equivalent) by SGC. Hall of Famer. "Honest Long Cut" back. To the eye of an enthusiast who appreciates the ultimate in clarity, the Cobb portrait delivered in this offered T205 is unsurpassed – precisely as the issue’s designers intended. The depiction's color is robust and uniform, and the piercing eyes of the subject would still strike fear in a pitcher of the current century. This is a very satisfactory collectible, exhibiting only moderate corner faults (seen most significantly at the top left) and mild, general evidence of past handling. a horizontal wrinkle at the right-side edge. The piece exhibits a boldly inked and fully legible reverse that reveals a couple of transparent product stains. Very Good condition, and distinguished by luminous display quality.
