Extremely rare card of Pittsburgh Pirate Hall of Fame Great Honus Wagner from the 1911-16 T216 Mino Cigarettes Louisiana regional tobacco issue. Only 2 cards have been rated higher by PSA, however they may not be a MINO, as they do not distinguish between the 3 brands - MINO, Kotton, Virginia Brights in their population report. They are all lumped together under the T216 People's Tobacco heading. Good color and clear picture image. Nicely centered top to bottom, off somewhat to the right side. Top corners about G-VG with the bottom pair having more wear. Clean front aside from some toning near the bottom left border. back relatively clean. Crease at knees, one to left side of cap and at both top corners do not disrupt the front surface that much. Very tough card to find in any condition. Loads of eye appeal for the given technical grade. A PR SGC 1 sold for over $5,000 back in October 2006.
