Ty Cobb – 1909 T206 ‘Bat Off Shoulder’

The 1909 – 1911 T2016 collection will always be highly worthy. Sadly, Ty Cobb items happen to fall out of the public eye. It also doesn’t help that the “Bat Off Shoulder” variation is pricier than the “Bat on the Shoulder” partner due to further higher valued versions of the former coming to light. The costs of such items fluctuate constantly; however, you can probably enjoy hundreds of thousands of dollars for one.

Mickey Mantle – 1951 Bowman

Here we have our next Mickey Mantle classic! Now let’s focus on the 1951 Bowman entry, despite being less valuable than the Topps one. This edition happens to be the sole legitimate rookie card of Mantle’s. A top quality version of these items goes for over half a million dollars due to its adored place in baby boomers’ hearts who actually attended his games. Youngsters also appreciate Mantle for his reputation.
