I love the story this tells! I imagine a couple guys smoking their cigs and sipping on some whiskey after a hard days work. Plastering the cards as they go.

Plastering as they get plastered...

If you do find a Wagner, you could restore it and rake in a couple hundred grand - you might not need much of the card to get it done!

Looks like the cards are all 150 and 150/350 series cards, putting the creation of this piece in late '09

Default ideas?

The board in middle is 1/8 to maybe 1/4 inch thick, where could I bring this to have someone cut it in two pieces so that I could display both sides or possibly sell both sides?

Thanks in advance and no I don't have a super thin skill saw! Or carpentry skills for that matter!

Peace, Mike

Default Splitting it?

Cool piece! It is too thin to shave it into 2 slices, IMO. It is probably worth more as an interesting 2-sided piece. I like the story of how it was covered in T3's after they got done filling it up with T206's.
