It is small and unattractive, but the W555 Cobb card, which some still consider his rookie card, could be affordable in lower grade.

You can also go to more "recent" cards 1960, 1961 Fleer at a higher grade and work backwards. Or 1960 and 1961 Nu-Cards etc. These cards are 60 years old and reasonably priced . Or get a modern card with a piece of his bat or jersey. Those are neat, touching his jersey. I know that is weird.

Good suggestion but, I'm not a huge fan of buying cards after their playing days. I think the sole exception I would make to that rule, is a Toleteros Josh Gibson

I'd go for a card with nice eye appeal that you'd be happy with since no matter what card you pick, you'll be bound to spend $$$$. So make sure you're happy with your purchase. Good thing Cobb has a bunch of very nice looking cards. Here are some of my suggestions for more affordable ones in no particular order:

(1) T206 Red Cobb
(2) M116 Cobb
(3) T202 Cobb (Cobb Steals Third)
(4) Orange Borders Cobb
(5) Glove Extends Up variations (i.e. E93/E94/E98, etc)

Even though SGC doesn't have the ability to grade them, or at least didn't, I like the Fro Joy cards....Just be careful and ask for board advice before buying one.... Many, many times we know more than the current crop of opinionators.
