Lot # 504: 1910 D322 Tip Top Bread Honus Wagner PSA FAIR 1.5

Graded FAIR 1.5 by PSA. Presented is the key card, Honus Wagner, from the 25-card 1910 D322 Tip Top Bread set issued by the Ward-Mackey Company. This very scarce set was regionally issued in the Pittsburgh area and features only members of the Pirates, the National League champions of the previous year. This is one of Honus Wagner's most striking and rare cards, and it features the same Carl Horner image as his famous T206 card. The reverse has advertising for Tip Top Bread and provides a complete checklist for the set. Do not be fooled by the modest assigned grade! This is a tremendous example that shares many characteristics with cards graded Very Good or better. The card displays bold colors, honest wear at the corners, and is downgraded due to an unobtrusive crease in the lower right. The important central image of Wagner is unaffected and remains as striking as ever. The reverse is clean with light toning. This is a very rarely offered and exceptionally attractive example of this extremely significant card, which is universally recognized as among the rarest, most striking, and most desirable of all Honus Wagner cards.
