Hi Everyone. I am at work, so I am sorry for the short response. I will try ro answer everyones questions when I get home. The cards were like this when I found them. According to my father, my grandfather was in posession of a Wagner card. You guys know who he is right? Again, ill provide more detail later today!

Edit: just to clarify, my father said he had the card but gave it away to a friend a long time ago. Also, I will make sure to take pictures of the backs later today.

Edit 2: Asking if you knew who Wagner is was a JOKE. Yes, i know you know who Wagner is...

Something seems a little fishy to me as well. And lack of knowledge of the set in particular.

If one knows they're t206 how do they not know that they're worth a decent chunk of change?

I could be wrong but if you knew the story it is more believable. I think he is checking on them for a relative. That is really all I can say about it but if he wants to come back and explain more he can. I do think they are real and are close to him. It's not a random troll situation, I don't think. Like I say, I wish him the best. And btw, if he comes back I see no reason he can't only have his user id out here. He picked up the phone when I called .

Judging from the scans I just saw, I agree the cards def look legit. Just the story is so surreal, almost eBay esc

I think Love For The Game Auctions specializes in major finds like this. You might contact them if you decide to sell.
