1952 Topps Mantle vs T206 Wagner
This PSA 8, 1952 Topps Mantle just sold in Heritage for $1,470,000. This PSA A, t206 Wagner sold in REA in April 2022 for $1,528,000. If you had $1.5mm, and you had to use it to buy one of these two cards, which would you buy and why?
The t206 Wagner is butt ugly and real banged up. But the t206 Wagner is the icon of all iconic cardboard, and there are FAR fewer t206 Wagners than 1952 Mantles. Plus, I collect prewar and love Honus. For all those reasons, I would buy the Wagner
