Rare Baseball Cards a Jackpot

The Toledo Blade says Karl Kissner was going through his grandfather’s attic this winter when he stumbled upon a box of old baseball cards. He recognized some of the names— Honus Wagner, Ty Cobb, Cy Young—so he contacted an auction house. Turns out the cards, which are in mint condition, “represent the greatest and rarest discovery in the sports card industry’s history.” They are expected to bring in close to $3 million at auction.
