The famed 1909-1911 T206 White Border Honus Wagner PSA EX 5 (MC) baseball card – the so-called “Jumbo Wagner” – sold for $3.12 million at a Great American Trading Card Auction held Oct. 2 by Goldin Auctions in Runnemede, N.J. It was the first-ever $3 million sports trading card. Also, a 1955 Topps #164 Roberto Clemente rookie card, graded PSA Mint 9, soared to $477,750 (a record for this card in any grade); and a 2003-2004 Upper Deck autographed LeBron James logoman rookie card made $312,000. Prices include the buyer’s premium.
