His T206 card just set another record for being the most paid for a baseball card at $6.6 Million! Honus Wagner was a star shortstop for the Pittsburgh Pirates and rumor has it that he refused to allow production of his card to continue because he didn't want kids buying cigarettes to obtain his card so the American Tobacco Company halted production on it leaving only between 50 to 200 of them in existence. Since then the card has been sold, re-sold, auctioned off, given away in a contest, bought and re-sold several times over and even altered. I don't have one. I checked. Wagner was one of the inaugural class of Hall of Famers inducted after a 21-year career that saw him win eight Batting Championships as well as leading the NL in RBI and Stolen Bases five times each. He won a World Championship with Pittsburgh in 1909 and is considered by many to be the greatest shortstop of all-time. I currently own 231 unique Beckett recognized cards of "The Flying Dutchman". Here are nine from my collection.
