E91 Hans Wagner Question

[Tsaiko]

Is there another series of cards that has Hans Wagner in the same pose as the E91 Hans Wagner, standing with bat, which is the same as the E91 Tinker standing with bat? If so, which one(s) and a scan would be most welcome.

Thanks for any info.

I'm not an expert on this but don't believe there is any other Wagner card like that one.

I don't think there are any other poses like that one either. Of course other Wagner poses are used on a whole bunch of sets, many being the same pose.

There is no other Wagner pose as seen in the E91C set, as the Wagner E91C is actually an artistic rendering of Tinker's face placed on a generic body.

Thanks guys, I appreciate it. Another mystery solved - for me anyway.

Yea brianp-beme, they are too similar, with just the faintest of details that make them different. Mostly the lettering on the cap of Tinker and a mole at the right of his lips.

Actually, I'm still questioning this.
On this card, his right eye seems to have been "filled in" and the left eye seems to be looking left, which is different from what I have. It may be just a blemish on the card or a bad scan and I don't have a scan at the moment, so can someone with this card do a comparison?

The artwork between the E91A, E91B and E91C sets was not changed, just the names. So any moles, crossed-eyes or other seeming variations are just the result of the quality of registration, printer's defect or the scan of the card. In my opinion the E91C Honus Wagner is Wagner in name only, unlike (for example) Christy Mathewson in the E91A set, which actually depicts Mathewson...do a search and locate the E91 article thread and you will get the full story of my theories on these sets.
