Honus Wagner Baseball Card Sold for $2.35 Million

Big news today!

The 1909 baseball card of one of Carnegie, PA's finest Honus Wagner recently sold for a record $2.35 million! The "Holy Grail" of baseball cards!

Come to think of it, $2.35mm could probably buy all of Carnegie, Heidelberg - including Denny Donnelly's house - a good part of Bridgeville, PA and still have enough left over for for a lifetime of rounds of drinks at the Uke's.

I'd even be in favor of relaxing our AOH "Irish bloodline" membership rules if our "Flying Dutchman" would agree to be a "Buying Irishman" since there are so few little of them. Hah!

Like I stated in the story above, there are so few "Buying Irishmen" because of stories like Bill Carr's.

Another sad, misguided act of poor judgment on behalf of an Irishman! Hah!

But then again Bill, if you were rich from selling that ball, think of all the unique AOH 32 Carnegie characters you never would have met like Mickey Abbott! Can you imagine what a shallow, but exceptionally happy life you'd be living today!
