Lot # 179: 1909 E102 Anonymous "Set of 25" Honus Wagner Batting PSA EX 5

Graded EX 5 by PSA. Only two examples are graded higher. This rare E102 "Set of 25" candy card features the legendary Honus Wagner in a classic batting pose. The manufacturer of E102 is unknown. The batting pose of Wagner on this card is identical to that found in several rare sets of the era including T216 Kotton Tobacco and E101 "Set of 50." This example is bright and crisp, with bold colors, flawless registration, and light corner wear. Clean checklist reverse. In 1909, Wagner led the league in every major batting category including batting average, on-base percentage, total bases and RBIs. This is a very attractive high-grade example of one of Honus Wagner's most classic cards, issued when he was "King of the Diamond."
