Holy Smokes Honus Wagner card....what is this card?

[slidekellyslide]

That's longer than the Unabomber's manifesto.

[Zone91]

Hahahaha you guys are funny!!!

This is one of the craziest diatribes I've read. I had to stop halfway through. I made it to the "queen of baseball cards". Scrolled, read FBI facial recognition, and scrolled again. Hilarious.

Thanks for sharing.

Wow, that thing has had three offers... I sure hope it wasn't you adrian

Even if it was proven to be Honus, I can't see it selling for anywhere near that much coin.

I've seen a few pictures of a young Honus Wagner, and that does not resemble him on that card, in my opinion.

Mine was one of them. Offered 5 bucks.

It was promptly declined.

Your'e lucky it was declined, I doubt it's worth that much.

By the way, wasn't Pittsburgh spelled without the "H" back in the 1890s?

I knew he wasn't going to accept it. Thought he might give me a kurt remark or some absurd counter offer.

Unfortunately he did not.

It must have been because he had already received a higher offer.

You actually got halfway through?

You're a better man than I, sir!

If the card doesn't he can sell the description in book form.

Tolstoy, he isnt.

[arc2q]

This is staggering. When the description is copied to Word it is 37 pages long and the word count is 11,373.

[EvilKing00]

Random excerpt.

••••••• Even in Pennsylvania today & over a 100 years later ,••••••••••
..............in many small towns,there are just as many Bars.
..............as there are Churches .
There are sometimes as many as ( 10 churches ) and there are at least (10 bars )
or more in many small towns still in Pennsylvania today.

My dad said growing up in Minneapolis there was a church and a bar on every block.

I feel cheated. I live in a Pennsylvania small town, and it doesn't have anything close to 10 bars... or 10 churches, for that matter.

Well, there ya go! It's obviously genuine based on the church/bar per town ratio.

I think I saw that item description written on a bathroom wall somewhere...

[Runscott]

If you ever want to hear an imbecile posing as a wise sage, send this guy an email. It will make you cringe.

[uffda51]

Free shipping!!!

But five minutes of my life I'll never get back after trying to skim
his diatribe . . .

[Jlighter]

This has to be a joke.

He raised the price to 1,000,000.

Dollars, not even Pesos.

Somehow while skimming the ebay description, "The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy" came to mind....

Just looking at the length of the description made to too tired to read any of it.

No not me I have ZERO intentions to buy this card!!! I have one card I want still it is the T206 Bill O'Hara St-Louis variation in a 2 a 3 or a 4.

To be honest not much a fan of Honus either....I enjoy his T206 card but that is it for me. I know he was a great player and all!!!
