Magnificent Type 1 news photo of Ty Cobb as a member of the Detroit Tigers. Encapsulated and certified as an original Type I photograph by PSA/DNA, Cobb is pictured standing in mid-swing and looking straight into the camera. Great imagery showing his determination, uniform and famous bat grip!  Multiple "Brown Brothers" credit stamps are on the reverse, along with Cobb's name written in pencil.  Although no year is listed, the pictured uniform style was only worn by the Tigers in 1915, during the prime of Cobb's career. The photo (6 1/2" x 4 3/4") displays a few tiny edge abrasions along the top and the sightest start of a crease on the top right corner - otherwise, presents in Near Mint condition.  One of the finest Type 1 photos of 'The Georgia Peach' we've ever seen; a Letter of Authenticity from PSA/DNA is included.
