or the 1914 Polo grounds Game. The advantage to the playing card issues is that they were made with rounded corners and you can pick one up in great condition for a small amount compared to all the others that have been mentioned (except for the Leaf of him as a coach). I much prefer the picture on the Polo Grounds to the one on the National Game. 1914 Polo Grounds- HONUS WAGNER - BST - 832.jpg Some folks don't consider the playing cards actual Baseball Cards, but they were produced during Honus's career and that makes it good for me.

I have always liked this 1908 PC770 American League Publishing Company postcard which features his classic Horner portrait along with a great batting pose. Nice that it was issued at the height of his career in 1908 - probably his greatest season. It is also very rare. I am only aware of three examples.

Hey, all!
Thanks for posting that ALPC of Wagner, Kev. That my be my favorite since it shows photographic images of a portrait as well as batting. I'm a big fan of B&W photo-based pieces and that one has the best of both worlds! Good to see you too, Jeff and Tony!

I would vote for one of the cards that features the famous Carl Horner portrait, preferably in black and white. It is interesting how some of these portrait cards are orientated to the right while others reversed the negative and show him looking to the left.
