It appeared for the first time at public auction as Lot #1 in REA's Fall 2016 sale, realizing an auction record price of $192,000, on behalf of a collector who purchased it in the first hours of availability following the find. Now, three years later, we are offering it again on behalf of the winner from the 2016 auction. It is our opinion that this find served to increase the stature and value of the T206 Ty Cobb with "Ty Cobb" back in the years following the find, and will continue to do so into the future, as a result of the increased availability of, and increased attention to, this iconic rarity.
