Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>I was hoping the prices for E94 HOFs had peaked, at least for a while, from a collector-buyer standpoint but noted that the E94 gold Wagner in PSA 1 (admittedly a nice 1) went for over 2k on ebay. Not sure if the price escalated because it is a Wagner and Wagners seem to be hot right now also, but was anyone else surprised at this price?<br />Makes me glad I was able to buy a few different color variations about 3 years ago before prices really started to climb. Wonder what SGC 40s and 50s in the Wagner E94 would sell for now? I believe BcD had an orange variation of the Wagner in a very high grade (an 80?) I bet that would bring a ton now if you still have it Brian...<br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1911-E94-CLOSE-CANDY-baseball-card-HANS-WAGNER-PR-FR-1_W0QQitemZ120064820396QQihZ002QQcategoryZ31718QQs sPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/1911-E94-CLOSE-CANDY-baseball-card-HANS-WAGNER-PR-FR-1_W0QQitemZ120064820396QQihZ002QQcategoryZ31718QQs sPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a>

Posted By: <b>robert a</b><p>Hey Bob,<br /><br />Very nice for a 1. <br /><br />Great card, but a mangled red wagner in a psa 1 holder would still go under 1k.<br /><br />Rob

Posted By: <b>JK</b><p>I was the underbidder - I didnt think anyone would come close to my bid, but expected it to end around 1800-1900 because it appears to be undergraded. I would not be surprised to see that card with a higher grade in the future.

Posted By: <b>quan</b><p>definitely looks nicer than a 1, prolly sgc20 or so. the high bidder is no dummy, he bought a very nice card.<br /><br />edited to add i remember bcab from 5-6 years back when i first got interested in prewar. he does have some nice prewar stuff once in a blue moon...

Posted By: <b>Richard</b><p>I am not surprised by the price, and it would have been higher if I had not forgotten to bid. <br /><br />It is an incredible looking 1.

Posted By: <b>Jon Canfield</b><p>I was watching this Cobb last week. An E95 SGC 10 for $910.00. I figured it was going to go somewhere around $500 but I guess I have lost touch with the prices.<br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1909-E95-Philadelphia-Caramel-Co-TY-COBB-HOFer-SGC_W0QQitemZ270064257915QQihZ017QQcategoryZ57993Q QssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/1909-E95-Philadelphia-Caramel-Co-TY-COBB-HOFer-SGC_W0QQitemZ270064257915QQihZ017QQcategoryZ57993Q QssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a><br /><br />Last December, I picked up a raw Cobb for about $600 that ended up grading to an SGC 30. Guess I got a good deal on it now!

Posted By: <b>bigfish</b><p>Not surprised here. Wish I had the cash to buy it. I would have gone higher. It was a real nice looking 1. No paper loss

Posted By: <b>JK</b><p>There is a touch of paper loss on that card below wagner's elbow on the right side of the card (you can see it in the better of the two front scans if you maximize the picture). I just wish I had bid a bit higher.

Posted By: <b>Aaron Seefeldt</b><p>Let me see... It would be a tuff choice between nearly 140 of these Wagners or 1 Mantle PSA 9... hmmmmmmnnnn.<br /><br /><br />edited to say: NOT!
