Well, the gorgeous t206 Cobb 9 that sold last night on SCP seems to indicate that prewar high grade and rare stars are starting to take off. $488,000. When you consider 54 Aarons are selling for $300-350K it makes some of the high grade vintage stuff look like a relative bargain if one can afford it.

This card absolutely blows me away. $500K for a PSA 9 Cobb, and it's not the Green portrait. IMO, the front of the card looks almost like a 10, but the back has some ink bleed and tiny staining. I guess the mix of the two makes for the grade of 9. Having said that, this price stuns me....

There is no PSA 9 Green Portrait, in fact there are no 9s period of any Cobb during his prime except 3 of the Bat off Shoulder, that makes a mint Cobb extremely rare. The last one sold in 2004 at HA for about $60K, implying a 15% compound annual return over the last 12 years to get to the price it sold for. Not cheap but definitely not ridiculous for a gem that survived 110 years like that, you can't pull a card from a pack today that is so stunning.

Well there is another currently selling at Heritage. Given finishing price last night, this buyer already got a better price than that one will.

Eomint is referring to the Jackson that sold at scp auctions and not the Cracker Jack one.
