Lot # 581: 1910 PC805 Novelty Cutlery Postcards Honus Wagner PSA FAIR 1.5

Graded FAIR 1.5 by PSA (submitted by REA). Outstanding example of Pittsburgh Pirates Hall of Famer Honus Wagner in a batting pose from the rare and highly regarded PC805 postcard set issued by the Novelty Cutlery Co. of Canton, Ohio, in 1910. This is only the second 1910 Novelty Cutlery Wagner that we have offered in the past 22 years! The PC805 series is recognized as one of the most desirable of all baseball postcard issues. These cards have always been appreciated by collectors both for their extreme rarity and distinctive style. This very attractive example of Honus Wagner is one of the key Hall of Famers in the Novelty Cutlery set. The card is bright and crisp with an outstanding image, even corner wear, and a heavy crease extending across the top portion of the card. The reverse displays light soiling and has never been written on or mailed. One of only seven examples of Wagner evaluated by PSA to date. This is a stunning and exceptionally rare card of one of the era's most legendary stars.
