Pennsylvania Department Search this web site: home bridging the urban landscape neighborhoods oakland Oakland: Honus Wagner John Peter "Honus" Wagner , "The Flying Dutchman," Charter member baseball's Hall of Fame, 1936. BORN: 24 February 1874. DIED: 6 December 1955. BURIED: "Saga" from the Bulletin Index 7 September 1939. The late John J. McGraw thought Honus Wagner was baseball's greatest player, and so thinks many another oldtimer today. Few years ago baseball scribes reverently passed bowlegged Pirate Wagner into baseball's Hall of Fame at Cooperstown, N. Y., making him first, along with Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth, to cross the threshold of diamond immortals. Nor is Honus Wagner without honor in his own city. "Wagner Days" were common in 1902, 1903, 1909, years when the Flying Dutchman and the Pirates were bowling over the rest of the National League. There was a Wagner Day all over the circuit when he stepped out of active, major-league playing harness in 1917, and another day of kudos when he returned to the Pirates as a coach in 1932. Wagner Day this weekSaturdaymay or may not be the last to find Honus in active service. He is 65 and silver-haired now, and has made a living out of baseball for 50 years. John Peter Wagner, born in Carnegie (then Mansfield) of German extraction, played on sandlot teams as a youngster, along with his four brothersAlbert reached the majors, had a long professional career as a shortstopand first made a name for himself with St. Luke's in the Allegheny County League.

29. Honus Wagner Baseball Card - Southeastern Antiquing & Collecting honus wagner baseball Card. In 1996, a 1910 honus wagner T206 card sold foran incredible $640000 to investor Michael Gidwitz of Chicago. How, you ask? http://www.go-star.com/antiquing/hwagner.htm

The Tale of the $640,000 Baseball Card by Mik McLeod In 1996, a 1910 "Honus" Wagner T-206 card sold for an incredible $640,000 to investor Michael Gidwitz of Chicago. How, you ask? Or rather, why would anyone pay that huge sum? Wagner, "The Flying Dutchman," was a great shortstop for the Pittsburgh Pirates, hitting 101 home runs between 1897-1917 - out hit by only eight other players. While scarcity of the card contributed to its price, it was not the deciding factor. According to the Society for American Baseball Research, there are at least 58 cards in circulation. But this card is the only known mint condition Honus card, and it has a unique story to tell. Even before the Honus Wagner card began selling for big bucks, mystery surrounded it. Some say Wagner had the tobacco card pulled off the market because he neither smoked nor chewed tobacco. He reportedly did not like the image it portrayed. Others have said Wagner chewed tobacco but pulled the card because the tobacco company didn't pay him a royalty. Either way, the move limited the number of Honus tobacco cards and drove up the price. But the card's story gets better. In 1991, the card came into the hands of "The Great One," Wayne Gretzky, and LA Kings hockey team owner Bruce McNall who jointly purchased it at auction for $451,000. After McNall went bankrupt in 1994, Gretzky coughed up another $225,000 to become its sole owner.

Honus Wagner From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Honus Wagner John Peter "Honus" Wagner February 24 near Pittsburgh December 6 ) is considered by many to have been the greatest shortstop ever to play major league baseball . He was born in the Pittsburgh suburb of Mansfield (now Carnegie Pennsylvania . In a career that spanned 21 seasons ( ), he led the National League in batting average eight times, and in RBI and stolen bases five times each. Wagner's speed, both on the basepaths and in the field, combined with his considerable size, earned him the nickname " The Flying Dutchman ", a reference to a legendary "ghost ship" of the same name. In those days, the term "Dutch" equated to "German", and the newspapers frequently tagged Wagner with Teutonic versions of his first name, such as "Hans" or "Hannes", the latter being short for "Johannes" and written down as "Honus". After a short stint with the minor league beginning in 1895, Wagner began his major league career with the Louisville Colonels of the National League , playing with them for three seasons. Louisville was one of four National League teams contracted out of existence in , and the remnant of the Louisville team was merged with the Pittsburgh Pirates . Wagner then played 18 more seasons, all with the Pirates, winning a
