Ty Cobb-phenomenal player & cards

[Seven]

I am thoroughly surprised Cobb's prices have lagged behind Wagner and Jackson, not that I own any Cobb's but still. The long perpetuated myths about him, are probably still doing his reputation some damage, I'm sure, but you would think the Man that held 90 records at one point, would be valued more highly in the hobby.

Other than the recent surge in Wagner profile cards which mirror the T206 image, Cobb is way way way more expensive than Wagner cards in comparison. As for Ruth and Jackson, those are just iconic players to collect for different reasons.
