e107 (very difficult and expensive)

M116 is what I'd say my #1 Wagner would be after the T206. They are just beautiful cards, both the pastel and blue. Very affordable too, a nice low graded pastel version with great eye appeal can be had for about 1K.

e90-2 is just really ugly to look at, the face is all messed up. The CJ is also kinda Ugly IMO.

The batting versions you find in e90-1, T216, etc is also I nice pose. I don't care for the throwing pose.

The M110 cabinet is incredible. I pulled one off LOTG auctions a while back and love it.

After T206 this is the rarest of portraits.
One in the Heritage auction now

It's impossible to find, but the E300 is my favorite.

One of my favorites. Also, E103, D322, E95 & M110.

Lots of good choices. I personally love the E95 (great, haunting image), M116 (classic portrait), E90-2 (or slightly rarer E104-2 below), and any of the throwing ones- E90-1, E92, etc (think throwing captures what Wagner was- big and awkward but a total stud). Have fun in your search!
