Posted By: <b>Sean Coe</b><p>Perhaps I lack imagination, but I see a ..stain not Honus Wagner. The ghost of P.T. Barnum is smiling at this one.

Posted By: <b>Chris</b><p>Looks like a water spot or stain of some sort but not a "ghost image". This has become the latest rage in sport card collecting. It's like opening up a bag of lays and finding a chip that looks like Jay Leno, come on.

Posted By: <b>Charlie</b><p>It's hard to see from the scans but it appears to be a partial image of the player on the front.

Posted By: <b>Scott Forrest</b><p>This is just a wet sheet card - same guy on back as on the front.

Posted By: <b>T-Hunter</b><p>That is definately not a bleed-through.<br />You can look at the hair and tell that it is a different player.<br />You can also see a red hue behind the player, like a background.<br />I can definately see the players eyes, hair and collar.

Posted By: <b>Chris</b><p>Looking at the scans provided it looks like Kid Elberfeld's hair. I still say<br />this is just crazy to collect, but to each his own.

Posted By: <b>Brian Weisner</b><p><br /> Ghost of Wagner? Not! There are only 2-3 Wagners known with Piedmont backs and none of them were ever inserted into packs. This is merely a wet sheet that wasn't stacked perfectly on top, so there may be a different player on the back. Besides, Wagner was never on a sheet with a Minor Leauger, so even the thought of this being Wagner is comical.<br /><br /><br /> Be well Brian

Posted By: <b>Judge Dred (Fred)</b><p><br />People have seen an image of the Virgin Mary on toast so seeing Honus Wagner on the back of a T206 doesn't surprise me... sometimes people see what they want to see...

Posted By: <b>brian p</b><p>Was it the Virgin Mary? Dang if I didn't think it was the Son of God, which would command more in the marketplace, Jesus being the Babe Ruth of the vintage biblical collecting world.<br /><br />Brian

Posted By: <b>Josh K.</b><p>frankly, this type of "ghost" image doesnt do anything for me (ie background color from a wet sheet or bleed through). Everyone wants to call these ghost images, but I dont think they are.<br /><br />To me, these are true ghost images (not mine):<br /><br /><a href="http://www.t206museum.com/page/ra_ghost_back.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.t206museum.com/page/ra_ghost_back.html</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.t206museum.com/page/ra_ghost_back_field.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.t206museum.com/page/ra_ghost_back_field.html</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.t206museum.com/page/ra_ghost_mullen.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.t206museum.com/page/ra_ghost_mullen.html</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.t206museum.com/page/ra_ghost_laporte.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.t206museum.com/page/ra_ghost_laporte.html</a><br />
