Description
1907 Detroit Tigers Real Photo Postcard BGS Good+ 2.5 - Rookie Era Cobb. . In 1907, the Detroit Tigers won their very first American League pennant before losing to the powerhouse Chicago Cubs in the World Series. The Tigers boasted a very strong lineup that included Hall of Fame batsman Ty Cobb, who would win his first of 12 AL batting titles that season. Besides featuring the 20-year-old Cobb, the Tigers also boasted Hall of Fame slugger "Wahoo Sam" Crawford in the lineup and a very stingy pitching staff that relied upon three different 20-game winners. Offered is a real photo postcard of that Tigers team. Real photo postcards were created on demand in small numbers and, generally, have no manufacturer noted. Manager Hughie Jennings is seated in the front row, holding the team dog, while Cobb is seated just over Jennings' right shoulder, looking stoic and focused. This fine Deadball Era postcard, which includes a handwritten note on the reverse, was postally used and mailed to Niagara Falls in Ontario, Canada. Graded BGS Good+ 2.Guide Value or Estimate: $1,500 - up.

Auction Type
Signature Internet Extended Bid: These Auctions are presented via catalog and online. Bidding is taken through our website or via phone. There are two phases of bidding during this type of auction: 1) Normal bidding: Bids are taken up until 10 PM CT the night the auction closes. 2) 30 Minute Ending: On a lot-by-lot basis, starting at 10:00 PM CT, any person who has bid on the lot previously may continue to bid on that lot until there are no more bids for 30 minutes. For example, if you bid on a lot during Normal Bidding, you could participate during Extended Bidding for that lot, but not on lots you did not bid on previously. If a bid was placed at 10:15, the new end time for that lot would become 10:45. If no other bids were placed before 10:45, the lot would close. If you are the high bidder on a lot, changing your bid will not extend the bidding during the 30 Minute Ending phase (only a bid from another bidder will extend bidding). If you are the only bidder at 10 PM, you will automatically win the lot at 10:30. Important: After normal bidding ends, you must be signed-on to the Heritage site to see the bidding option on lots where you qualify for extended bidding and you must be on an individual lot page to reflect the accurate time remaining for that particular lot.
