Outstanding horizontal postcard picturing Ty Cobb in his rookie season of 1907 considered along with the Dietsche Wolverine News and Novelty Cutlery postcards to be the rookie card of the Georgia Peach. Prices for the various 1907 postcard and photo issues related to Cobb continue to skyrocket as collectors covet the earliest collectibles related to the great Tigers outfielder; this example boasts image quality and overall eye appeal in excess of the grade assigned by SGC. The assessment of PR 1 is related to writing and postal use; some light areas of ink smudges and soil are relatively minor; the postal use date of October of 1907 verifies the postcard date of issue as being during Cobb's rookie season. An exceptional piece one of Cobb's more desirable early collectibles.
