I was just wondering about other’s take on this card. From everything that I’ve heard, this card has a reputation for being very difficult. Do you think it is something that is common to this particular pose (ie…the e101 and e92 fielding poses also being scarce)? I know that fielding poses in e92, etc..command a significant premium over their “batting pose” counterparts from the same set. Or is the e102 Wagner fielding simply a card that, as it’s own entity, is very difficult to come by for whatever reason?
The second part of my question is this… the last e102 Wagner fielding card to be sold was in a 10 holder and went for slightly under $1500. By contrast, cards of Wagner in the same grade, but different sets that are much easier to find (ie..e90-2, m116 etc...) tend to go for twice this amount. Is there a reason for such a large difference in values? Are portraits of Wagner more desireable than his batting/throwing poses found in e98, e95, e92, etc?
Thanks much,
Brian
