Stunning, almost perfect black ink Ty Cobb signature on the center panel of a 1912 T202 Hassan Triple Folder - "Ty Cobb Steals Third" with Ty Cobb and George Moriarity side panels. The card itself appears EX+/EX-MT from the front with the back having a few black ink marks. This ink looks to be the same as that used on the front for the Cobb signature. As this card originally came many years ago with all four T206 poses signed we believe that this is probably ink residue from the day in 1940 that Cobb signed all five cards. There have been only 2 confirmed T202's autographed with this being the only Ty Cobb signed. An incredible piece and probably a once in a lifetime opportunity. Lot includes the original return envelope from Ty Cobb postmarked June 12, 1940. Autograph graded MINT 9 by PSA/DNA.
