Graded VG 3 by PSA. Hall of Famer, pictured on the condition-sensitive "First Card" in its release. The silhouettes at the lower edge of the design enhance the period artistry of this scarce and highly popular Ty Cobb card. This specimen's balanced borders frame a prized image, notable for its bold color and attention-grabbing yellow background. Traces of natural wear affect the corners and surfaces, but this Sport King of Cobb, picturing the then-retired baseball legend, reflects an attractive overall state of preservation. Cobb's entry is the "number 1" card in the production. As such, it is virtually always subjected to long-term storage at the vulnerable top of a collection's stack, and, as a consequence, it is especially difficult to obtain a quality example. Very Good condition.
