PSA Cert #:26614519

1911 T3 Turkey Red #9 Ty Cobb PSA Authentic-Altered to PSA 2
Alteration types: Scuffing card to mask marks, reformed corner

Sold on 12/5/2014 as a PSA Authentic-Altered by Greg Bussineau Auctions to an unknown buyer for $1,260.00
Consigned to PWCC and currently for sale in their 2019 Premier Auction #7



This T3 Cobb Cabinet card was once deemed altered by PSA. The card doctor has cracked it out and added scuffing where the letter "O" was colored in the words "COBB" and "DETROIT." Also, the card doctor has added extra fraying to the lower right front corner perhaps to make the wear look more natural. The odd wavy pattern in the gray border next to the lower right corner may be marks on the PSA holder, or some form of purposely added damage to the card itself by the card doctor. I am not sure.

This card demonstrates that you have to take great caution with any vintage item in PWCC's inventory even now.
