Ty Cobb Typed Letter Signed — Regarding His Yearning to Retire — “…I am getting tired of the competition and being away from my family so much…”

Ty Cobb typed letter signed, dated 15 December 1927, on “Tyrus R. Cobb / August, Ga.” letterhead. Letter, typed in black ink, is addressed to sports agent Christy Walsh and discusses Cobb’s desire to retire. Reads in part, “Dear Christy: — I know you think that I am a terrible fellow for not writing you ere this but the fact is I have just been unable to write and give you the information you wanted. In the first place I really and truly want to retire from the game — I am getting tired of the competition and being away from my family so much. I have had a lot of base ball and it is getting time that I step out. I have received numerous letters from fans since the season closed asking me not to retire, adding to my record etc., etc. Then, within the last two weeks I have received two very flattering offers. I haven’t encouraged anyone and haven’t given out anything which might indicate that I would entertain an offer. Mr. Mack is very anxious to have me back but I am still anxious to retire. Of course, I am not going to say absolutely that I will retire for no man should make a hasty decision; then there is always a chance for an unusual offer, and I still have a year or so left which makes my position rather unsettled — although, unless I get an unusual offer I think I am safe in saying that I will not be playing next season. If I shouldn’t play ball I am very sure that I will spend the summer abroad with my family. If you can draw any conclusions from what I have told you, all very well. If I don’t play next season I would I would like to do the World Series for you…” Signed clearly, “Ty Cobb” in black ink. Letter, measuring 8.5″ x 11″, has light folding throughout, else near fine. With PSA/DNA COA. Sold for $4,440.
