You are aiming high. There is nothing wrong in ending with a lot of nice Wagner cards.

But I have resigned that I will never finish Evers (need the Drum and BL460, both 1 of 1 at current), and holding out hope for a tinker bat off AB 460. Indeed, only recently did I learn that there is zero way I will get that Drum for many years (from the horses mouth), and it was truly disheartening and made the whole (expensive) endeavor feel like a waste, especially when you see Jamie�s red Cobb back run. But it gave me a guide, something to shoot for, and I miss that. So recently I have considered t206 back runs of M Browns Chicago shirt, or Frank Chance yellow portrait (an impossible undertaking), but then I bought a Wagner throwing blue Crofts, and it lit a spark. A few more Wagners later and I am again considering undertaking a maddening impossibility. What�s the worst the happens, I get �stuck� with a bunch of rare-back Wagner cards???!!

Gotta aim high!!

By far my least favorite E card set/issue, and likely the Wagner I am least motivated to buy, especially since I already have his picture in the form of Joe Tinker (below), who, save the team name on the shirt, appears identical to Wagner in the E91 series.

At least you have a card that has the facial likeness of Tinker. The E91C Honus Wagner that uses this same front design is of course Wagner in name only.
