Ty Cobb – 1909 T206 ‘Bat Off Shoulder’
The left-handed Narrows, Georgia native spent the majority of his career with the Detroit Tigers. He’s one of only a few MLB players to accomplish the Triple Crown, which entails leading the league in batting average, home runs, and RBIs. He was enshrined in the Hall of Fame in 1936.
Any T206 cards issued before the early 1900s will be extremely valuable. Cobb’s “Bat on the Shoulder” card is sometimes overlooked. Condition, popularity, and availability all have an impact on prices; however, if you come across one of excellent quality, it may demand $100,000 or more.
