Default Which Wagner would you rather have and why?

I’d love to hear your opinions.

I don't collect those, so take this with a grain of salt:

The SGC version looks better to me. The tape (or whatever it is) on the PSA version is quite distracting.

I am usually not a fan of As, but when I buy a card I like to look at it, so in this case I would get the SGA Authentic.

I'm not a Colgan guy but would choose the A. I'm an image collector and Wagners Horner image is tops, but out of my range.
My favorites would be the Max Stein, E94, PC796 solo and w/Cobb, and Pinkerton in that order.

I’d go with the 1, given I prefer numerical grades over Authentic, and this proof only has 4 total graded, with PSA 1 ranked 3rd.

The SGC Authentic all day every day because it has much greater eye appeal to me.

I am more accepting of "Authentic grades" for prewar and would choose the SGC slab without any hesitation.

SGC one is the better one since the PSA has tape that covers that player's face, hurting the eye appeal of the card.

Obviously the SGC copy.

Anyone who chooses "Tape Face" over a nice clean image is a complete slave to the Grading Companies.

I would prefer a pinhole and a slab that fits the card.
