Description:
Offered here is an outstanding cut signature of baseball legend Ty Cobb, boldly signed in green ink across the top of a black-and-white Hall of Fame plaque cut. The autograph appears prominently above Cobb’s Hall of Fame portrait and biographical plaque text, and has been professionally authenticated and encapsulated by PSA/DNA, receiving an Auto Grade of NM-MT 8 (Near Mint-Mint) under certification number 85709174.

The cut displays the full Hall of Fame tribute to Tyrus Raymond Cobb, highlighting his iconic career achievements, including his leadership in American League batting titles, career hit total (4,191 at retirement), and unmatched dominance during the dead-ball era. Cobb’s flowing, stylized signature remains crisp, clear, and visually striking against the monochrome background.

Historical Context:
Ty Cobb (1886–1961), known as "The Georgia Peach," was one of the most fierce competitors and statistically dominant players in Major League Baseball history. Playing nearly his entire career with the Detroit Tigers (1905–1926) before a brief stint with the Philadelphia A's, Cobb was a 12-time American League batting champion and retired with a .366 lifetime batting average, still the highest in MLB history. He also held the all-time record for hits (4,191) until surpassed decades later by Pete Rose.

As one of the inaugural inductees into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1936, Cobb remains a cornerstone figure in the game's mythology. His autograph is one of the most coveted in the baseball collecting world, particularly when paired with Hall of Fame imagery. This signed plaque cut provides a perfect tribute to Cobb’s monumental career.
