Item Details
Description
An exceptional piece of baseball history is up for auction: a postal card signed by the legendary Johannes Peter "Honus" Wagner. This item is showcased in a museum-quality custom-designed frame, providing a stunning display and preservation of a rare artifact linked to one of baseball's earliest superstars. Honus Wagner, often called "The Flying Dutchman," is considered one of the greatest baseball players ever. His career spanned 21 seasons, primarily with the Pittsburgh Pirates, where he won eight batting titles and led his team to victory in the 1909 World Series. Wagner's prowess at shortstop and his exceptional hitting established new standards for excellence in the sport. The historical significance of a signed item by Wagner is profound, given his stature in the game and era. During his time, Wagner was a force in Major League Baseball, competing during the sport's "dead-ball" era, characterized by low-scoring games and a lack of home runs. His signature on a postal card is a treasure for memorabilia collectors, connecting a tangible piece of history to the early 20th century when baseball was burgeoning into America's beloved pastime. Wagner's autograph is particularly notable because of his reclusive nature and his known reluctance to sign autographs, making this signed postal card a scarce find. Furthermore, Wagner's legacy in the sport is immortalized by the rarity and value of his T206 baseball card, often dubbed "the Mona Lisa of baseball cards." The card is framed in a custom-designed setting that both protects and showcases its historical and aesthetic value. The frame is carefully selected to complement the era of Wagner's reign in baseball, providing an elegant and fitting tribute to the sports icon. This preservation ensures that the postal card remains an enduring symbol of Wagner's monumental contributions to baseball. This auction item offers not just a snapshot of Honus Wagner but a piece of history that will continue to resonate with baseball aficionados and collectors alike. The framed J Honus Wagner signed postal card is more than just memorabilia—it is an artifact that embodies the spirit of an era and celebrates one of the most storied athletes in sports history. Authenticity has been verified by leading forensic experts. A detailed Letter and Certificate of Authenticity will be included in the purchase. The Opinion of Authenticity is guaranteed by "Scientific Authentication Company", the forensic authentication service that performed the forensic analysis.
