I suggest you take the 4 minutes to review the about video segment from Bloomberg yesterday.

In case you missed this, on the WAGNER and others.
We are very happy to have broken the record by $500,000 for a trading card at public sale or auction. It is the highest price ever achieved for a trading card at public sale or auction, only the prior sale of the 'Gretzky Wagner' (which was a private sale) was higher.

When the initial press release came out about a record, we were referring to the 1.62 million previous auction record, which was beaten by $500K. Some ran with the 2.87 # instead...but we and all involved are thrilled. I will tell you for all the comments regarding the hobby and this card, virtually ALL the support for the card including the winning bidder were from individuals outside the hobby who were fascinated with the news stories, tv appearances and uniqueness of this item....but the answer is, no one gained a Wagner for their T206 collection. I am sure it is the ONLY T206 the winner owns.
