Honus Wagner House on eBay - OT?
 
Posted By: <b>Sean</b><p>Maybe a bit off topic, but was built pre-war and housed Honus Wagner...I can just see him cooking a turkey at the stove with the Mrs, or may a secret stash of T206's in the attic? <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br />Sean BH<br /><br />"<a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/Honus-Wagners-House-Carnegie-PA-1918-1955_W0QQitemZ4469287135QQcategoryZ12605QQssPageNa meZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/Honus-Wagners-House-Carnegie-PA-1918-1955_W0QQitemZ4469287135QQcategoryZ12605QQssPageNa meZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a>"

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>They need to send it off and get it graded... that seems to be the mind(less)set.

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>Topps could buy it and make 1 billion relic cards. Wagner stove pipe piece card #125/250.<br /><br />In Seattle where I live there was a fight over ownership of a house Jimmi Hendrix lived in as a kid. It was for a time a rat infested crack house with boarded up windows, not as quaint as Wagner's abode.

Posted By: <b>Judge Dred (Fred)</b><p>David,<br /><br />Now you've done it. You let the "house" out of the bag and now it's going to be pulled apart, piece by piece and sold off. The sum of the parts is worth more than the whole. Perhaps someone could start a rumor that Hans hid 4 of his T206 cards somewhere in the house and they remain there to this day... waiting for someone to find them.

Posted By: <b>William Heitman</b><p>The strip with the Wagner with the crease in it was obtained from the Wagner family's attic. Wayne Varner got it.
