T-206 dimensions: 1-7/16" x 2-5/8" = 3.773 sq. in

This photo = 3-7/8" x 5-1/2" = 21.3125 sq. in

21.3125 / 3.773 = 5.6487

So, yeah, it's really more than 5x the size of the card.

I spent a fair amount of time with this photo over the years, photographing the Dreier Museum and collection about a dozen times. The photo is spectacular, and several times the size of the T206 Wagner it sat next to.
With Doug Dreiers consent, here are a couple of those pictures from last fall.

No doubt a great photo but if it's cut from a larger composite it seems like the bidders might want to know, no?

I should add that with those pics shown it is larger than I envisioned. Great photo.

Looks awfully big to have come from a composite. It's roughly the image size you'd find on a cabinet card. If I see a composite with the image that big I might change my tune, but the Legendary description seems fine to me.

Was the T-206 Wagner in the picture crossed over to a PSA Holder?

I believe/assume Fogel's is the entire thing, with the full mount, like the other Horner cabinets you see.
