Anybody else heard about this auction?

If you look up Paul Leanard, Auctioneer you will see that it sold for $32,000. Hard for an old guy to remember that far back. Got it right now. It's written in his obit. He was a good guy. Frank

There are 3 or 4 Piedmont Wagner's I think I have scans of all of them but I will have to check.

I thought it was really interesting to see they have the 21a picture of the McNall/Gretzky Wagner and then picture 21c, which is presumably the same card before the trimming took place. I don't remember seeing the before and after of this famous card.

That would have been a record, right? Do you know if that got any attention, local or national?

Ted Koch (RIP) of Indianapolis once told me he owned a T206 Wagner. Can anyone verify that or know if it has sold?
