Affordable Ty Cobb cards?

You can also go to more "recent" cards 1960, 1961 Fleer at a higher grade and work backwards. Or 1960 and 1961 Nu-Cards etc. These cards are 60 years old and reasonably priced . Or get a modern card with a piece of his bat or jersey. Those are neat, touching his jersey. I know that is weird.

Good suggestion but, I'm not a huge fan of buying cards after their playing days. I think the sole exception I would make to that rule, is a Toleteros Josh Gibson

I'd go for a card with nice eye appeal that you'd be happy with since no matter what card you pick, you'll be bound to spend $$$$. So make sure you're happy with your purchase. Good thing Cobb has a bunch of very nice looking cards. Here are some of my suggestions for more affordable ones in no particular order:

(1) T206 Red Cobb
(2) M116 Cobb
(3) T202 Cobb (Cobb Steals Third)
(4) Orange Borders Cobb
(5) Glove Extends Up variations (i.e. E93/E94/E98, etc)

E98 e93 or 1932 us caramel, 1933 sporting kings

Even though SGC doesn't have the ability to grade them, or at least didn't, I like the Fro Joy cards....Just be careful and ask for board advice before buying one.... Many, many times we know more than the current crop of opinionators.

Just not with it today....normal for me. Oh well.....

The Rogers Peet Cobby in regular condition might be under 1k....

These were from my prior collection. I remember I bought 5 packs with Cobbys in them from the heirs of a guy that worked at the company. I had them graded and they were 7s and 8s as I recall...
