A PSA Authentic with three of the 4 boarders chopped off sold in late 2019 for 540k. That puts the mile high copy coming up well above that. You would have to think 150k-450k more. Check out vintage card prices dot com to see actual sales of any vintage card.

With the large jumps in prices of modern cards, it will be interesting to see if that translates to the Wagners. A Trout card just sold for 922k, why wouldn�t a Wagner sell for more?

Smh, I have several of these laying around. Mine even say "RP" which I'm sure stands for "Real Pure" so I know they're authentic

.. seriously, congratulations and thanks for sharing!

I agree whole heartedly my friend. My suspicion is the Mile high Wagner coming up will trade for 750k-1mil.

I just go back to the copy with three boarders trimmed off trading for the amount of a nice house in the burbs as my new gauge. Although that sale felt like pent up demand also because the card had not traded in a while, but none the less their is a new comp that suggest a big number..

A private sale I understand the concept of. But how in the world does it happen?

Ryan is sitting at home and decides, �Hey, it�s about time I buy a Wagner and a Doyle rarity.� You don�t just go on eBay and find those, so how do you even know where to start looking, or who to contact?

Or was it more Powell was sitting at home and said, �I�ve had that Wagner, and the Doyle long enough. Think I�ll sell them. Hmm, bet Ryan would want them, think I�ll give him a call.�

I�m really glad that both parties seem happy with the outcome of their deal, but my mind is just reeling trying to figure out how something like this happens.

(If by chance there is a secret Wagner Owners Society (secret handshake, meeting once a year at an undisclosed location, etc.), if anybody talks to the owner of Howe�s old Piedmont Wagner, please tell them I would really like a color photocopy or scan, as that is the closest I�ll ever get to it. Thanks)
