than others.




Regarding these two famous T206's.....there is NO mystery about them, they were both cut from the same uncut sheet.**

Gretzky Wagner-------------------------------------Charlie Conlin Plank


Note ** My research indicates that the original uncut sheet that these two cards were on was first discovered in Long Island, NY (Suffolk County).
Several other T206 Wagner cards were also discovered in that area. This is not as unusual as it may sound, since Joseph Palmer Knapp (American
Lithographic Co. President) had a Summer home in Mastic Beach, Long Island.

So where are the rest of the Wagner's and Plank's from that sheet Ted?
And the most referenced information on where the sheet originated is Alan Ray's father bought it at a Florida flea market and then had Ray bring it to NY to sell it.
