Auction's most costly vintage baseball cards

The history of vintage baseball card auctions is long and colorful.
T-206 Honus Wagner tobacco cards have sold for upto $2.8 million in auction. The "Holy Grail of Sports Cards", it's extreme-high auction value can mostly be attributed to great PR and "auction fever". It's not close to being the rarest baseball card and Honus Wagner is not Babe Ruth or Mickey Mantle. Yes, the T-206 set is beautiful & special but because of the # of cards and scarcities, few collector's try to complete, which should keep auction competition down compared to say 1933 Goudey or 1952 Topps baseball card issues.
BUT IT DOES NOT...
There's a story Wagner banned his card because he was anti-tobacco but there are other stories about financial considerations.
You surely have heard of PSA and may even know that this card was the FIRST they ever graded. But did you know that dealer (B.l. .ast.o name encoded) admitted tampering with the card, perhaps having it trimmed down to size, before PSA graded it so highly for the auction.

1910 Birds Series (T42/T43)

The 1910 bird series cards, particularly those within the T42 Mecca and related sets, offer a fascinating glimpse into early 20th-century popular culture and natural history. These cards, often distributed with tobacco products, featured beautifully rendered illustrations of various bird species, capturing the public's growing interest in ornithology. The sets were produced with either white or gold borders, and are popular with collectors. These cards are not only valued for their aesthetic appeal and historical significance, but also as a testament to the era's promotional practices. The cards give a great look into what the general public was interested in at that period of time.
