1917 Dieges & Clust Pittsburg Press Medal with Wagner Image
2 Attachment(s)
I am curious if anyone can tell me about this 1917 Dieges & Clust Pittsburg Press gold-filled medal that pretty clearly has a picture of Honus Wagner on it. The back says church league. I can't find this exact medal anywhere, though I have found other Pittsburg Press medals and many other by Dieges & Clust. I have found the cool Wagner church league trophies like this one:
https://www.robertedwardauctions.com...tation-trophy/ I am looking for any background info on the league, medals with Wagner images (was this somehow related to his sporting good line?), etc. Thanks! |
Despite the fact that they're antique, I've seen a number of these types of medals over the years with the same/similar image used. There's a Pittsburgh church league medal for sale on eBay currently... Its also by Dieges & Clust (No, its not mine) :)
I can't add more regarding any Wagner connection though. https://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-1920-P...AAAOSwnDRcYexe |
Here are some others that have sold in the past, with many being rather similar to yours...

Thanks for the input guys. I never thought this was hugely valuable but I am a bit surprised that one hasn't caught my eye before with the Wagner image on it.

2 Wagner or not 2 Wagner?

Someone told me that this pic I have is Honus and Albert.
It was super random....but the more I look at it......I think Mr. Random might be on to something....but.... . *Sigh* I dunno. Anyone who can tell me how to get such a thing authentication or appraisal or something? The lack of a signature is turning out to be a roadblock. Any info and knowledgeable opinions will be super appreciated! Thx - |
