Pete,

The top right and bottom right corners do have significant creasing.

Even if the Wagner wasn't the "Holy Grail," it would still be one of the coolest looking cards in the set.

Thanks Martin for taking the time to share with us

Martin, while you are there can you please inquire into any T215 Pirates brand cards in the collection?

Sean,

I will add to my list!

It is my understanding that the baseball cards have already been separated into one archive/storage box. This will make my task easier!

The card has an old trim across the bottom, probably to fit into one of the older album pages. Not to deceive anyone.

Not sure how often everyone gets over to the dark side of the nonsports but we have a great article from Michael Reeve about a visit to the Wharton-Tigar collection at the Museum. Michael actually helped Wharton-Tigar catalog and prepare some of the collection.

If that doesn't work..........go to the NS side and search for Tigar......it'll pull it up.

Fantastic share Martin........thanks so much!

That is some really bad archival preservation by the British Museum!
