Actually $85,000. in the 1999 Halper auction.

The strip that sold years ago looked like crap, the strip that the Mastro Wagner came from obviously looked a lot better.

Dollar for dollar, I'd rather have the strip. It might not look as good as the PSA 8, but I like the originality of it.

Agree. I think hands down that is the greatest T206 card/piece in T206 memorabilia. I'd take that over a Ty Cobb with Ty Cobb back or a clean Honus Wagner.

No, it is a nice novelty item, but the end it is not an actual t206 card issued in the packs. Nothing beats pulling cards out of their packages and the history that goes with them.
