Description:Rare Ty Cobb tobacco tin c.1912. Exceedingly scarce tobacco tin is one of the most elusive rarities in the fields of both baseball card/memorabilia and tobacciana collecting and the offered example is one of just a handful known. Nicely illustrated on both sides with his likeness and "Ty Cobb Granulated Cut Plug" text/titling. As is most often the case, there is some minor scattered spotting/rust and a few small nicks and scratches. A handful of indentations are minor in nature and do not detract from the overall display value. The first to have been offered in some time and certainly among the more desirable condition grade specimens in the hobby: VG
