Would anybody actually buy Honus Wagner's house???

I know we're not supposed to talk about current auctions, but this one is so weird and off-the-wall. Leland's is auctioning off the house Wagner built and lived in after 1917. As I recall, this is not the first time the owners have tried to sell this building. Starting bid is 130K. |

I think originally Upper Deck was going to buy it and cut it into 1" squares for an ultra rare "Wagner House Piece" card. |

It did have a smoking room in the original blueprints. However, Wagner, miffed at the tobacco companies for not paying him enough money, demanded that the architect cut the smoking room from the plans, hence the big hole in the back yard. |

When my wife and I were looking for a house about 10 years ago we went to an open at Moe Howard's old house in Toluca Lake. Pretty sad to realize you can't afford a Stooge house. And yes, the owners had quite a bit of Three Stooges stuff throughout the house. |

If you live in Pittsburgh and it's in a nice neighborhood, it looks like a nice house. |

If you intend to bid, be careful. I heard a rumor that the edges had been trimmed. But maybe it was termites. You never know. |
