1910 PC796 Honus Wagner Sepia Postcard SGC 5.5 EX+ - POP 1; The Highest Graded Example on the Combined SGC & PSA Pop Charts!
FINEST OF ITS KIND WAGNER!!! Unique for the grade, this unfathomable SGC 5.5 EX+ 1910 PC791 Honus Wagner Sepia Postcard stands alone as the finest of its kind! Indeed, this POP 1 marvel has not been joined or bested by a single SGC, PSA or BVG example, synonymous with the Flying Dutchman's undisputed standing as baseball's greatest all-time shortstop. Due to Wagner's "Holy Grail" T206 subject, all of his previously undervalued vintage cards are now realizing extraordinary pricing points, and considering an inferior SGC 2 PC796 specimen breached the $10K mark in April 2023, we cannot even begin to estimate the potential worth of this extraordinary best of the rest Honus offering. The well-centered and crystal-clear Wagner sepia batting pose literally turns back the clock to an era when the immortal Hans was terrorizing NL pitchers to the tune of 3,420 hits and eight Senior Circuit batting titles. Both crease-free surfaces have eluded any notable surface blemishes, with even corner wear and a negligible soiling spot on the unmarked verso preventing a higher assessment. Not often does an uncontested highest graded Wagner card surface for the taking, with this pinnacle POP 1 masterpiece truly worthy of the highest hobby accolades!
