Frank Nagy/Honus Wagner Question
Posted By: bill smith
Hi I need to ask a question. I am Bill Smith and Frank Nagy was my Father In Law. I'm not a collector so I don't know the do's and don't's of the group here but this question is very important to my wife. She told me the other day as she was looking and her Dad's cards on Mastronet that she would love to know who got her Dad's Honus Wagner card. If the person who gets it doesn't want to be known I understand, but like her Father my wife is very hard to buy for at Christmas so I thought I take a stab at finding out for her. I'm sorry if this question is out of line but when she went to Chicago to see her Dad's cards she broke down and it became very clear to me how hard it was for her to let her Dad's cards go. Also if the person or person's who get this card prefers they can contact me privately at bsmith48134@yahoo.com. This goes for anyone who would like to ask any questions of me or my Wife, Brenda. |

This board strives to be helpful. Folks that buy these very high end cards are a little secretive sometimes but this board has worked wonders before. I have great hope you will be able to find out who. It's definitely against the Mastro rules to let out who a buyer is but in this circumstance if you speak with Doug A or Bill M they might be able to ask the eventual buyer for you. I know some Mastro folks visit this board, in lurker status, so your question is in the correct place. Also, please feel free to use our board if you need to....it must be very stressful to sell that wonderful collection. I have sold wonderful cards and there is always a little remorse... Good luck... |

Not necessarily. Many collectors are extremely private and many do not read the board. My guess is we probably won't find out. However, Mastronet may be willing to contact the buyer and pass along this request, and the buyer may be willing to speak with the family in confidence. I would say that is your best chance. |

Do you know and would you be willing to share the story of how your Father in-law got this card? What year, how much he paid, any little story behind finding the card. |

Hal, don't forget about the PSA 4 Wagner that was listed in SCP a year or so ago. |

It does need to be noted that not ALL T206 Wagners are graded. I do believe there is at least one or more that would grade higher than a 4 and are not graded. Actually I am pretty sure of one.......regards |

These are NATIONAL TREASURES that need to be REGISTERED with some Federal Agency or the Library of Congress!!! |

Listen I know collectors of high end cards may wish to remain anonymous and I totally understand, after all for over 20yrs I heard Mr.Nagy say how important it was not to tell just anybody about him or his collection. |

There is a board member who has a raw Wagner which would grade a 5. That said, we may like to know who buys it, but that doesn't mean we will know. To be continued. |

Got to love the raw Wagner T206s, which there are more of then you think, many of them that I know of are also in very good shape for the issue and will most likely never be graded. |

I believe there are three Wagners in the ex to ex/mt range of which only one is graded (PSA 5). |
