Posted By: <b>lee spies</b><p>hello everyone<br /><br />i have some questions concerning the W555 Ty Cobb card.<br /><br />just how scarce is this Cobb card ? <br /><br />would you say its Cobbs rarest 07/09 card ?<br /><br />A 1907 or 1909 ? ( i think i saw someone list it as a 1921 ) ??<br /><br />if it was a strip card, as a full uncut strip been found ??<br /><br />psa pop. report shows 1 has been graded a psa-1. SGC pop. shows 4 graded.<br /><br />well that should be enough for now !!<br /><br />thanks, lee<br /><br />
