Part of a 24-card collection that featured golfers, boxers, motorboat racers, and various other subjects, the T227 series included Ty Cobb and three other diamond greats (Home Run Baker, Chief Bender, and Rube Marquard) in the oversized assemblage (compared to the standard tobacco cards of the time) that predated the Sport Kings set by over 20 years. Though graded PSA 1.5, the featured card rates 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 above-grade corners offsetting the light creases that run across the surface. A rare card that offers a balance between eye appeal and affordability.
