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!

Thank you.
The 5 Pirates that sold in the last REA auction were rumored to have belonged to Wharton-Tigar. I'm curious if he had any others.
Thanks again.

Beauty! Thanks for the pictures, nicer then the existing example on T206resource.

If you are looking, can you take pictures of any T206 oddities you see.

Sean, will check thoroughly!

Barry - We also saw an exhibition showing artifacts recovered from Pompeii & Herculaneum:

http://www.britishmuseum.org/whats_o...rculaneum.aspx

This was very powerful and full of emotions particularly the casts of people trapped under the volcanic debris. Viewing the card lifted the spirits again and made me giddy!

Chris - I will check.

Hopefully, I will be allowed to take more photographs!

Martin

this great hobby does serve as a bit of a healer at times!!!
your comments are very much on the mark.

I must say---with my love for classical archaeology---that seeing
the artifacts would've made me feel a bit giddy!
and the wagner would've been 'icing on the cake'.

all the best,
barry

David, I asked if I could remove the card from the sleeve but was informed that was not possible.

Barry - thank you for the kind words. We really were very lucky to be able to view both the card and the Pompeii exhibits (we booked for the latter 3 months ago!)

Steve - glad I'm able to share for once.

Martin....do you mean to tell us that there is no pic of the girlfriend holding the wagz? Dave. Well at least let's see her with the Pompei victims!

Cool experience. Nice to have a thread not full of sissy bantering over grading issues.

Thanks for the pics.

Tom - thank you for posting the link from Michael Reeve. I shall read that this evening.

Joe - thanks for sharing the image. Its also great to know its possible to take photos - I will double check beforehand.

Kevin - alas there are none.

David P - There was no photography allowed at all in the Pompeii exhibit. The artifacts are incredibly delicate, there is almost no lighting and the staff watch you like hawks!

Dave H - I was a little suprised with how the Wagner was stored too.
