Wagner also collected autographs on his pre-war cards. One of my most cherished hobby possessions is my Wagner/Snodgrass correspondence and associated autographs, which I've shown a few times on Net54:

Interesting read. What a fun time that must have been trying to put together the checklists and finding new cards in sets all the time. Great stuff.

In one of the early annual inch-thick Sport Americana Baseball Card Price Guides, by Beckett & Denny Eckes, you'll find an awesome interview/article with John Wagner. It is inside either edition #3 (red cover) or #4 (yellow cover), sometime around 1982 or 83. When I dig my copy out, I can post the article.

It is in #4. I kept this price guide just because of this article and the article by Lew Lipset detailing the 1933 Goudey Sheets.
