Posted By: AnonymousThis 1954 Willie Mays is a card that I've always thought had a lot of character. I've even thought about sending for grading to give the graders a laugh. By the way, I paid $1.00 for it! <img src="http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-10/1284504/horror.jpg"> <img src="http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-10/1284504/horror2.jpg">

Posted By: Joe D.Dan, Those are horrible looking Wagners. I have no idea why you would keep them in your collection. I would help you rid yourself of those ugly things if you wanted me to. Thats the kind of friend I am. Regards, Joe
