I based my 50k rational on previous sales. Tip top bread wagner went for 120k in may heritage auction. In that same auction i paid 31k for a 5 pastel portrait. In the current REA auction the blue bckgrnd Wagner is now up to 25k (w the vig) and its a 1 rated. I guess i just felt comfortable paying 50k. I also picked up the 21 Koester Ruth PSA 6 in memory lane , 1929 Roger Peets Ruth, and 1916 Globe store Ty Cobb.

Thanks brunswickreeves for adding the E91C to your list. I checked the PSA pop report, and they show 60 total, so that amount could be added as well.

And a couple of little cleanup items on the list:

E254 Colgans Chips have two separate listings that should be combined, with
"1909-11 Colgan's Chips" and "1909 Colgan's Chips Stars of the Diamond". I think the best combination title for it would be "1909-11 E254 Colgan's Chips Stars of the Diamond".

And the Tom Baker Game listing should read "Tom Barker Game".

Great list...I really like the collaborative efforts of the community when it comes to making lists like these be the best they can be.

I noticed that too and sent him the info earlier today.

Here is the breakdown for the e105 Mello Mints:

Batting - PSA: 12 / SGC: 13 / Total: 25
Throwing - PSA 7 / SGC 1 / Total: 8

I own one of each pose.

Thanks, have made suggested edit to split out in the Excel.

When did prices on the pastel and blue diverge so much? I paid fairly similar prices for mine in the same general time frame.

In my experience blue (for all M116s) have always been more expensive and desirable than the pastel. Maybe that margin has grown lately, but I don’t think so- I just think the price of both types of Wagners have grown such that $5k vs $8k is now $50k vs $80k

Hmmm... either I got an exceptional deal on the blue, or I paid too much (at the time) for the pastel. More likely the latter lol.

Thanks for doing all the hard work. Now here is some more...the E254 Colgan's Chip listing should be highlighted blue, as it is one of the right facing cards.

Originally the blue highlights were right facing portrait cards in color, and green highlights were for both right and left facing portrait cards in non-color.

I’ve edited the Excel so it now summarizes by right facing portrait in color (blue highlight), right facing portrait in non-color (gold highlight), left facing portrait (green highlight) and batting/throwing/other (no highlight), as well as by grand total # and %.
