Default Ty Cobb Loving Cup Restoration

Should I get this Cobb Loving Cup restored. Silver plated, gold fill on the inside.? This is W.B. Jarvis Sporting Goods Company. Ty cobb was part owner when the company was started in 1913 in Detroit. He was involved until around 1915. I have the original sporting goods catalog and advertising for the cup. I also have a tennis racket with advertising and an Indoor bat Ty Cobb W.B. Jarvis and a few W.B. Jarvis Stock certificates. When I found the cup years ago, I almost did get it restored, but they had to send it out and I was nervous about that. Anyone have a value or seen another? I have never seen another for sale or in any Cobb Collection.

Joe
