Ty Cobb autograph letter signed, dated 27 November 1929, on ''Tyrus R. Cobb / August, Ga.'' letterhead. Four page handwritten letter is addressed to Cobb's agent Christy Walsh and discusses numerous topics, including Cobb's sympathies over Walsh's wife being sick, his suggestions for potential stock market investments, and job placement prospects for his friend, football coach Tatum Gressette. Reads in part: ''...consult your banker and buy now some gilt edged common stocks in high grade companies on a yield basis where quoted prices are close to book value and can get a 6 to 10 % return on fine stocks and you will make more money in 12 months than you ever thought you could for now everything is down to bargain counter prices...I have a friend who is coach of our Richmond Academy Junior College team Augusta, Ga. All local boys who have walloped the stuffing out of the opposition 54 out of 55 consecutive games, some record...now this friend of mine, Coach Gressette by name, is one of the finest fellows...he surely has got something in coaching line...now he is ambitious and wants to go higher wants something better wants more money...you have several coaching friends, I surely would like to see this fellow do better...I know coaches know of openings and would like to know of some good man to recommend so sound out some of your friends if your can without compromising yourself and advise me...I feel complimented that I have an opportunity to recommend him...Sincerely, Ty''. Gressette went on to become head football coach for The Citadel Bulldogs in Charleston, South Carolina from 1932 until 1939. Letter, measuring 8.5'' x 11'', is on 4pp., with folding and toning throughout, and staple at top center. Very good condition. With PSA/DNA COA.
