A damaged T206 Honus Wagner card sold for $1,528,066 Tuesday morning after a 17-day auction.
The version is missing three sides, has been trimmed and wields a massive crease across its middle, but it still tallied 75 bids.
\"The results from this auction speak to the ever-present and growing demand for Wagner cards -- which transcends the hobby -- in any condition,\" Brian Dwyer, president of Robert Edward Auctions, said.
\"This card was [sold] in 2019 for $540,000; that buyer purchased it in 2012 for $198,850. It\'s exciting to see this card continue to rewrite the record books.\"
