Probably we've done this one already, but for old times' sake and for the newer collectors, let's put together a list of rare Honus Wagner cards. Let's say anything with at least 1 confirmed copy but with fewer than 50 examples so no one tries to list you know what.
I'll start. D381 (Fleischmann). |

E104-2 is a tricky one.

1910 E98. Technically over 50 if you add all 4 colors together but broken out there are less than 50 graded of each color between the two companies, there are some that aren't labeled with a color so there may be more than 50 reds but not by much.

IMO, only the most common Wagners would not fit the pop of less than 50. The T206 is actually quite plentiful compared to most Wagners. For truly rare Wagners I would say it should be 10 or less. This is one of my favorites.

Not a card but very proud to own. JF Hillerich & Son advertising envelope mailed to Wagner himself just after signing an endorsement deal with the bat maker. I took it down to Hillerich & Bradsby and they didn’t know one existed.

We are not worthy. Still looking for either but would prefer the throwing. What a group of Wags. Well done.

I'm sure many frown on these, but hey unless the person ripped the page out and send it to them, how else would the publisher know which team to send? I'm pretty sure there are less than 40 copies of the W601 and or the 1906 Sporting Life NL pocket schedule.

Some great tough Wags shown. Here is a link to a thread I started 10 years ago which had plenty of input from collectors about this subject (over multiple years):
https://net54baseball.com/showthread...ghlight=wagner And for those who get a little squeamish at the thought of your eyes glazing over a longer thread, below is the most updated listing seen within the thread that lists the various perceived levels of availability of Honus cards (for the most part the list consists of what I consider cards, as I don't have a good feel on items outside of normal card range). Feel free to suggest updates...I see some that I might consider shifting. Definitely more Common: 1913 Barker Game 1909/11 Colgans E254 1915 Cracker Jack 1909/11 E90-1 batting and throwing 1910 E91-C 1909 E92 Dockman batting and fielding 1910 E93 1909 E95 1910 E98 1906 Fan Craze NL 1910/11 M116 blue 1910/11 M116 pastel 1913 National Game 1914 Polo Grounds Game Around the same as the T206 Wagner: 1914 Cracker Jack D322 Tip-top E90-2 E94 E102 batting M101-4 Sporting News and blank backs Probably less the the T206 Wagner: D304 General Baking and Brunner's backs E101 batting and fielding poses E103 E135 Collins McCarthy and blank backs Definitely less than the T206: All Star Baseball Baseball Bats D304 all backs besides General Baking and Brunner's D381 Fleischman/Ferguson Bakery E92 Crofts Candy both poses E92 Crofts Cocoa both poses E92 Nadja both poses E102 fielding E104-2 E105 Mello-Mint E106 American Caramel both poses E107 E125 American Caramel both poses E135 all associated backs except Collins McCarthy and blank E270 Tin Tops E271 Darby Chocolates E286 Ju-Ju Drums E300 Plows Candy J + K M101-4 (all backs except for Sporting News and Blank) M101-5 (all backs) M110 M131 Baltimore Newsboy Orange Border batting and portrait Reccius Icky Bob T5 T216 Kotton, Mino and Virginia Extra (all variations) Texas Tommy type 1 and 2 Voskamps W555 W600 both W-Unc 1912 Postcards: Rose Co, American League Pub, Novelty Cutlery, Vignette Heck if I know: BF2 Pennants M101-2 M101-2 w/Cobb Brian |

It seem like every year there is a thread about rare Honus Wagner cards compared to his T206 but most if not all of them are rare because all the cards in that particular set have a low population. Between PSA and SGC there are 402,036 graded T206's, 54 of those are Honus Wagner's that's 0.0134 percent and that's not even taking into account the ungraded cards.

You need to add the M101-1’s to the list. Maybe 3-15 of each around?

The bigger size supplement type issues are definitely not one of my strong points when it comes to knowledge. I will add the M101-1 and National Copper Plate to the 'Definitely Less Than T206' column...and should I add the M101-2 as well? It was/is in my 'Heck if I Know' category.
