Graded EX/MT 6 by PSA. Surpassed by a mere 5 copies on record with PSA. Expertly centered with superior white borders that frame a striking image of the great Cobb surrounded by an azure blue background. The corners show slight touches of mild wear at the tips assuring enthusiasts that the card is most likely a survivor of a childhood collection rather than that of a factory set. The reverse sports a well imaged blue inked advertisement for the Sporting Life. "The base paths belonged to me, the runner. The rules gave me the right. I always went into a bag full speed, feet first. I had sharp spikes on my shoes. If the baseman stood where he had no business to be and got hurt, that was his fault."- Ty Cobb. The offered quote shows the determination and strength to which Cobb played every game. A stunning card that will be the highlight of even the most advanced of M116 Sporting Life sets.
