Honus Wagner question on what card to pick up

[mrreality68]

selection over load.

A lot to think about thinks for those that shared.

I do like the portraits and currently towards them. Not sure which ones but the Rose Post Cards are really nice.

I also saw the 1911 M110 Sporting News Cabinet Card and those have appeal in both the eye appeal and the Rarity.

Please keep making suggestions the more informed the better the decision

Thanks

You could also get the 48 Leaf depicting Honus putting a chaw in his mouth, I could never figure out why they would choose this image, I guess that's a portrait of sorts...

The National Copper Plate and M101-1 Sporting News are the first and best Wagners besides the T206. Both are rare. My favorite issues, with the great portraits and the bio on the back. Would rank those at the top along with the W600s and then the E107.

Budget matters and I’ve always liked the game cards (National Game and Tom Barker) as they don’t tend to break the bank.

I think the E-300 is gorgeous. Sorry I don't have a scan of one.

or the 1914 Polo grounds Game. The advantage to the playing card issues is that they were made with rounded corners and you can pick one up in great condition for a small amount compared to all the others that have been mentioned (except for the Leaf of him as a coach). I much prefer the picture on the Polo Grounds to the one on the National Game.

Some folks don't consider the playing cards actual Baseball Cards, but they were produced during Honus's career and that makes it good for me.
