I work with the daughter of one of the owners of this auction company.

She came in to work a few months ago and asked me if I know anything about Honus Wagner. I said that I know a lot about honus wagner!!!! She said her dad's auction co. had acquired a honus wagner baseball card they were going to auction off. I got very excited...and I pulled a pic off my office tack board and said...does it look like this?!?!(I have a pic of Scott B's Wags on my office wall!)

She had no clue. I asked her to have her dad call me. I couldn't wait I was so excited so I called him...left a message.

While at the airport getting ready to leave town he called me...and I asked him about the card. As he told me the story...I knew exactly which wagner he was referring to...and I asked him if the owner's name was Cobb.

He said yes...and I proceeded to tell him everything I knew about it. He was silent. I emailed him links to this board...and to other stories about this card.

I ensured him this card was 100% fake...and that the only reason he should even consider being a part of this would be that he'd incur lots of publicity...albeit potentially negative.

Obviously he did not heed my warnings...so at this point contacting them will most likely be futile.
