E-93 "Valentine Card" Find

[loubrown]

Had a wonderful group of E93's (mostly) that I was able to acquire. The Cobb and Wagner came back from PSA today and the Young (5) is on the way. 12 or so other HOFers and 30 total cards. The person that owned them bought a box of turn of the century valentines back in the late 70's. Once she started looking through her new valentines treasures, she found these and then tucked them away until recently. Thought that this was such a cool story of how they survived so well for all these years.

Great story! Congrats. As an aside, how does the Cobb and Wagner get the same grade?

They didn't. The Cobb is a 5. Wagner is a 6. But I do think that the Wagner could have very easily caught a 7. Comparing it to the REA 8 that just sold, they are not that far off.

Jesus do I need to get my glasses prescription updated!! The Wagner is a 6. My bad. Either way, that Wagner is gorgeous. They are all in amazing condition for 110+ years old, but that Wagner is extra gorgeous.
