I think the answer will involve the uncovering of a valuable card hiding in plain sight (and readily available today.)
Take a good look at the guy sliding home on this T202. The position of his body, the size and shape of his back, the haircut, the belt loops, the pinstripes on the cap...... It's Ty Cobb. Compare to the attached known image of Cobb. It's the same guy, and someday, a documented image from that T202 card, either on a vintage photo, or in a newspaper or book, will confirm it. My guess as to why Cobb isn't identified on the back of the T202 is that he was out on the play, and Ty wouldn't have been happy with that citation. This card might not increase 100x, but it has a good chance, in 10 years, of going from a common to a $5,000 card. |
