This incredible card one of the hobby's finest of "The Georgia Peach" from the most celebrated set of the era and issued at the peak of his powers is a simply breathtaking combination of baseball card artistry and condition.

A dazzling crystal clear image of Detroit Tiger Hall of Fame great Ty Cobb in his prime emanates from this masterpiece from the landmark T206 tobacco issue. Issued two years before Cobb had begun his incredible feat of 12 American League Batting Titles in 13 seasons the card's superior color immediately commands your attention. Cobb's image is flawlessly rendered in vivid detail and the entire scene is framed by snow-white borders. The Piedmont 350 back is boldly printed well centered and bright. All corners are extraordinarily sharp completing a remarkably fresh overall composition that belies its hundred-plus years of age. The magnitude of this opportunity cannot be overstated especially when you consider that only three T206 "Bat Off" Cobbs including the offered example have been designated MINT 9 status among 872 examples reviewed by the firm to date. By every measure used to evaluate vintage baseball cards this ranks among the finest treasures ever offered publicly.
