A key piece in a 24-card collection that features various subjects, the T227 series includes Ty Cobb and three other diamond greats (Home Run Baker, Chief Bender, and Rube Marquard) on an oversized canvas (compared to the standard tobacco card of the time) and predates the Sport Kings set by over 20 years. Though graded SGC 1.5, the featured card rates are among the most elusive in the Ty Cobb anthology and carries the Miners Extra reverse. The brightly colored prize presents well for the grade with very accurate centering that helps detract from the light creases in the upper left and lower right corners. A rare card that offers a balance between eye appeal and affordability.
