Graded 80 EX/NM 6 by SGC. Elite 1909-11 T206 White Borders Ty Cobb (Bat Off Shoulder) pose. With a tight grip on his wooden weapon of choice, the fearsome Georgian emerges from a majestic tri-color dusk setting. The centered illustration is framed by well-defined corners and creamy edges. Despite a slightly "diamond cut" tilt, the overall presentation of this antiquity is not compromised in the least. The Piedmont 350-450 Subjects advertising back is bright with pronounced blue typeface. The highest graded Piedmont/Bat Off Shoulder combination confirmed by the grading service. Presents at the absolute peak of the technical assessment.
