amazing isn't it how nature works. Here, a flood destroys his grandafther's entire collection EXCEPT the Wagner. God must be a collector too

A new baby, active duty millitary...

He should throw in that he lost a leg saving a litter of golden retrievers from a fire, and the fire was at an orphange, and the orphans all had cancer, and the puppies had cancer, too, and on his way out of the building, with one arm wrapped around 7 puppies, he managed to save a nun, and that nun happened to be related to the Rockefellers, and the Rockefellers were so grateful they gave all the orphans a million dollars but he refused any reward for himself because he's just that kind of guy, a lover of freedom and America and puppies with cancer. Hell, I might buy the card then!

It's funny that he actually recognizes the card is from 1909, but still claims his grandfather bought it in a "tobacco pouch" in the depression. Hmmm, a tobacco pouch. Maybe this is the ultra rare Sweet Caporal Wagner inserted in a Polar Bear pouch!

Maybe he meant a marsupial pouch, which would explain the liquid damage to the card.

P.S.

Is it wrong to send an ebay message to this guy that he's a jackass?

I sent him an email and told him I would pay for the grading service. He said that someone is going to give him $100 so he can send it to Beckett's grading service.

I still want to know how he accounts for it being bought in a 20 year old pack of smokes. Or maybe it was that little known time in history........you no the great depression of 1909/1911.
