Arguably the greatest pure hitter to ever take to the baseball diamond, Ty Cobb single-signed baseballs have always been highly prized by autograph collectors. Even though Cobb lived to the age of seventy-four (13 years longer than Babe Ruth), his reputation for being unfriendly and unapproachable no doubt deterred potential autograph seekers. That being said, Cobb single signed baseballs are by far rarer than the Ruth variety, making them a tough find for baseball collectors. Presented here is a rare opportunity to acquire one of these rare signed spheres from the Georgia Peach himself! This Official American League (Harridge) baseball was signed by Ty Cobb, who personally dated the ball in blue ink on a side panel "Ty Cobb 11/30/55". The baseball has toning and scuffing throughout, showing evidence of game use, but is overall in fine condition with a bold autograph. Accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity from PSA/DNA.
