Which Ty Cobb

[maximus35]

[QUOTE=clydepepper;1593946]I think the Sporting Life set is both undervalued and underappreciated.

- but you said '..M116' which is the designation for the Sporting News issue not the Sporting Life.

This is the exact card I meant....sporting life m116 but I would go for except a PSA 7.

I think in general the 1914 CJ is in more demand. However, for investment value mid to high grade usually do a lot better than low grade. (For prewar, I usually think Authentic to 2 is low grade, 3-5 is mid grade and 6 and above is high grade.) Therefore, I'm thinking E92 might be better and then the 1914 CJ in low grade, but if you find one with really nice eye appeal and not much staining on the front of the card.

Actually I like seeing a little staining on the 1914 CJs as most came that way. 1915 should be clean. If I had to pick from the OP list then the CJ would be the best by far as its an iconic card.

See the 15 CJ Cobb in Oct pick up thread. That's a nice sub $10k example!

Agreed.
As nice of a CJ Cobb as you can get (I would keep it to a 1914, as mentioned). The flip grade is a bit less important at the 10k level and it's not going to be high grade technically (again, at this valuation level)...I was looking at them yesterday, myself.

I picked this one up last week..
It's a 15 with good eye appeal except for the obvious.

I think I did real well on it! 🏆

id go with a cj or a green t206.
