The listing, T206-1909 HONUS WAGNER!!!..OK... IT'S A REPRINT has ended.

T206 HONUS WAGNER -NO ITS A REPRINT ....BUT AN OLD ONE...NOT SURE WHAT YEAR THIS PARTICULAR REPRINT WAS RELEASED BUT THE STATED VALUE OF THE ORIGINAL CARD WAS $35,000...TODAY ITS VALUED AT $2.8 million .**

***** In 1991 hockey figures Wayne Gretzky and Bruce McNall bought the card for $451,000. Gretzky resold the card four years later to Wal-Mart and Treat Entertainment for $500,000, for use as the top prize in a promotional contest. The next year, a Florida postal worker won the card and auctioned it at Christie's for $640,000 to collector Michael Gidwitz. In 2000, the card was sold via Robert Edward Auctions to card collector Brian Seigel for $1.27 million. In February 2007, Seigel sold the card privately to an anonymous collector for $2.35 million. Less than six months later, the card was sold to another anonymous collector for $2.8 million. In April 2011, that anonymous purchaser was revealed to be Ken Kendrick, owner of the Arizona Diamondbacks. [2] These transactions have made the Wagner card the most valuable baseball card in history.

i'm not sure this when this reprint was made but again the value of the original T206 card was $35,000 at the time it was printed (says it on back......)
SO...I KNOW MY PAYCHECK WON'T COVER THE PRICE OF AN ORIGINAL...SO WHY NOT GET AN OLDER REPRINT

well the reason it's valued so high was that wagner didn't kids to buy cigarettes to get his cards...so only 60-200 cards were printed making it a very rare card

I;ve tried to do some research on this particular reprint (with a write up on the back)..the closet I can come up with is its from the 1980's ...judging by the value listed ($35,000) and a description on a google search..(possibly from the 1987 all-time greats set..not sure were it came tho)..i also have the piedmont reprint ...i bought a set 1909-11 T206 Reprints Complete Set "The Monster"...over 520 cards in the set...that complete set can now cost around 300.00 -350.00 but on ebay...sets starts over 100.00
