There has never been an auction description for an authentic Wagner that sold that included the color of the seller in the description just for full disclosure
Playing the race card makes absolutely zero sense in this situation and I don't know how they convince people to write stories based on that premise. They're basically saying these rich white men refuse to give them money for the holy grail of baseball cards, not based on the card's authenticity but based on the color of the seller's skin.
