Definitely a case of first world problems

I wonder if this is this truly "hypothetical" or if the OP has some inside dope.

Would all these new Wagners have the same Sweet Caporal Back? If they had a variety, say Piedmont 150 and Sovereign 150, and Sweet Cap factory 25 and 30, we would have people doing Wagner back runs.

My money would be on Jaime B completing the first Wagner back run.

i was thinking about a similar idea a week or two ago...while contemplating the black swamp find of e98. Initially I thought the e98 market would be changed forever...and I still believe that to be true. I find myself kinda wanting a card from the bsf just to see how pristine a caramel card was the day it left the factory.

As many have said...the Wagner is the face of the hobby...not because it's the rarest...but it transcends the hobby. So if 50 more wagners were found...I agree they'd be absorbed...and values overall for wagners should come down a bit. But there will always be a big demand for that card.

Haha, that absolutely crossed my mind when I was discerning the perception people would have about this thread.


I truly do wish that I was able to break some news to you right now and post a scan of authentic Wagners strewn across my bed.


OK, FINE: BREAKING NEWS!
