A T206 Ty Cobb!

This legendary card is the bat on shoulder version with a Piedmont back and is graded BVG 1.5. From the "Monster" set of T206 cards, this Cobb is going to be the centerpiece of your collection. Ty Cobb will look incredible if you're looking to add to your tobacco run or it'll be a heck of a challenge coin when your friends start saying "I have a nice card collection." and you toss down this beauty.

VIP BONUS PRIZES:

1. 1954 Topps Jackie Robinson SGC 2.5 & 2019 National Treasures Baseball Box

Yes, you win BOTH prizes! This year marks the 75th anniversary of Jackie Robinson breaking the color barrier in Major League Baseball and we really want to give away a Jackie card. The 1954 example pops with the yellow background in a year Jackie made his sixth straight all-star game.

We also know you love ripping wax, too! Best of both worlds with this prize. In the 2019 NT box there are 8 autographs or memorabilia cards with a possibility of Vladimir Guerrero Jr or Fernando Tatis Jr rookies or Hall of Famers Ken Griffey Jr, Nolan Ryan, and more!

2. $3,500 Break Credit to Vintage Breaks

A $3,500 break credit can buy you a lot of breaks! Perhaps you're interested in vintage baseball like this 1962 Topps Cello pack or the latest football breaks. The world is your oyster here; this credit is good towards ANY break on our site.

3. 1955 Topps Sandy Koufax Rookie SGC 4

Graded SGC 4, this Sandy Koufax rookie has great eye appeal. Koufax was a 19 in 1955 when the Brooklyn Dodgers on the World Series. Koufax went on to win rings in 1959, 1963, and 1965. In his final four seasons, the Dodgers great won three Cy Young awards and an MVP.

WHY CHOOSE VINTAGE BREAKS?

Vintage Breaks offers THE BEST VALUE IN BREAKING.

When you check out for a spot on the site, the price you see is the price you pay. Taxes and shipping are included!  Your cards always come protected in holders.  The last time you mailed a package out had to have set you back more than three bucks, right?  If you buy a $3.00 spot, you get your card holdered and shipped for that price.

Lack of product in stores has been a problem; we see the same empty shelves that you do.  If you can't find cards, Vintage Breaks is your solution.
