Description

Peerless portrait of Cobb in 1917

Exemplary glossy 8 x 10 photo of Cobb posing in his Detroit Tigers uniform and holding his bat upright, prominently signed in fountain pen, "Ty Cobb, 1917," signed later but dated to identify the year of the image. In very good to fine condition, with a crease to the upper right corner. In 1917, Cobb led the league in nearly every offensive category, including batting average (.383), hits (225), doubles (44), triples (24), stolen bases (55), on base percentage (.444), and slugging (.570). A superior, iconic pose of the record-setting hitter who amassed a .367 average and 4,191 hits over the course of his 24 big league seasons. Encapsulated in a PSA/DNA authentication holder.
