Recently graded and fresh to the hobby comes this gorgeous 1909-11 T206 Piedmont (150/25) Ty Cobb Green Portrait. Graded VG-EX by SGC, it is very well-centered with super clean borders, vibrant colors and picture-perfect registration. While VG-EX is very strong by tobacco card standards, we are frankly surprised it did not get a better rating based on its outstanding attributes. Piedmont ad on back indicating 150 Subjects and Factory No. 25 is flawlessly printed. The only blemishes keeping it from EX or better are the corners, although we've seen much worse on VG-EX T206s trading in the market. A valuable addition to any serious pre-war collection. Our consignor acquired this gem decades ago during the hobby's infancy. The most recent sale of a Cobb Green Portrait in SGC 4 (also Piedmont 150/25) was $19,400 in October.
