1923 Our Boys Magazine Ty Cobb Cover
Picked up my first Ty Cobb item - a 1923 Our Boys magazine with Ty Cobb on the cover! This was a sales magazine to encourage youth to sell other magazines from the Curtis Publishing catalog, including Country Gentleman, Ladies Home Journal, and The Saturday Evening Post, to name a few. Looks like Cobb really liked the outfit, given his testimonial (no doubt paid for), and given that he encouraged his own son to sell magazines too!
