Ty Cobb

1951

I found this interesting cover on Heritage auctions site, consisting of postmarks from Ty Ty, Ga and Cobb, Ga, signed by Ty Cobb. An interesting use of postmarks to create a perusal collectible on which to obtain an autograph.

Cobb is a county in Sumpter, Ga. Ty Ty is located in Tif County, taking it's name from the local Ty Ty Creek

Ty Ty is the birthplace of Darby Cottle Veazy, 2-time All-american softball player from Florida State University. Elected to the FSU Hall of Fame, and had her number retired by the University. Winner of the Broderick Award

1985-Sep-08 Chicago
Pete Rose surpasses Cobb's all-time record of 4,190 hits


I am not aware of the winning bid on the above piece
