Sometimes I can't tell if ebayers are just dumb or trying to pull a fast one on someone.

See, all you guys are assuming, I'll bet, that this Honus Wagner, the BASEBALL PLAYER, when, in fact, this happens to be a photo of young Honus Wagner, life-long potato farmer and no relation.

I don't believe they used gloves in 1880 and certainly not catchers mitts.

Excellent! Now I can add this treasured piece to my Future Potato Farmers of America collection. It will go next to my rookie card of the guy from the Pringles can!!!

"Young Honus" similar in context to "The Next Babe Ruth" or "My, he's a big baby. Sure to be a football player."

Besides, this kid ain't bowlegged.

I like the fact that the seller dates the photo to the WWI era, when Honus was not 3, but about 43.

The sad thing about that one is that someone actually listed some late 1800s prayer card a few months back and the header actually said "Jesus Christ rookie card". Even worse the description went on to say that it was Jesus's "rookie" card because it was the earliest known picture of Jesus in card form. Ebay is just getting weird anymore!
