THE FLYING DUTCHMAN

Honus Wagner, who was born to German immigrant parents in present-day Carnegie, Pennsylvania, played the majority of his career with the Pittsburgh Pirates, where he emerged as a premier hitter.  He has been considered one of the best all-around players since the day he retired in 1917.  Wagner is still considered on of the greatest shortstops to play the game, and was a member of the first class voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1936, tying Babe Ruth for second in the voting. 
  
The depiction of Wagner on the 1910 Tip Top Bread baseball card is after Carl Horner's iconic photograph portrait. That same portrait would also be used as the basis for the T206 Honus Wagner tobacco card.

Only 32 examples of the 1910 Tip Top Bread Wagner have been certified by SGC with this particular issue receiving a 3 Very Good designation. There are a total of seven 3s in the SGC population with only seven graded higher.

An exceptional example of this ultra rare and desirable Wagner.
