The trend in Wagner cards

[Aaron Seefeldt]

I have 0 Wagner cards, sold them all before the “explosion”. BUT I do have these labels and to me they’re the most beautiful Wagner portraits in the hobby

Those cigar labels are so beautiful! I wonder how they got away with printing those when American Tobacco got sued to stop their T206 production?

Thanks Rob! Not much is known about them but they were obviously stopped before mass production and distribution. They are all believed to be proofs. The largest one (rectangle/white/SGC Auth) has notes written on it. There is also an envelope or two known so it was obviously a legitimate business venture that was stopped for some reason(s). Did Wagner intervene?

The envelope isn’t mine, I sold it several years ago. Oddly, it has a stamp on it but was never postmarked
