Thanks again for the work you are doing
. This is another article I hadn't seen until you posted it.
From what I understand that was the first Wagner ever sold at auction. Also, believe it or not, I still have the hand-written receipt that changed hands when my father bought the card from the "third party" who he was auctioning it off for. He then held onto the card until Fred Mckie could pick it up.
