Buzz Wagner's grandson here. Very weird coincidence that this card surfaced in Missoula, 50 miles from where my grandfather died, and the city where I'm currently living. We've been contacted by the people who are handling this card for more information about our family connection to Honus.

You may also be interested in this documentary I made out of my grandfather's old footage from his childhood in pre-war Japan.

At around the 12 minute mark you'll see some previously unreleased shots of Babe Ruth when my grandfather saw him play in Tokyo.

Cheers!
