The autumnal equinox is an astronomical event marking
the start of fall in the Northern Hemisphere. An equinox
happens when the center of the sun crosses the "celestial equator," an imaginary extension of the Earth’s equator
into space.
The first day of winter in the Northern Hemisphere is in December;
south of the equator, it is in June.
The story of the most famous — and valuable — baseball
card in the world continues to be told. The 1909-11 T206
Honus Wagner set a new world record price for a baseball
card, selling for $3.12 million through Goldin Auctions. The
price includes the Buyers Premium. This breaks the old
record of $2.8 million, which was paid for a different copy
of the card in 2007.
Known as the “Jumbo Wagner,” the card is graded a PSA
5, making it one of the top-condition copies of the card.
Johannes Peter "Honus" Wagner
(February 24, 1874 – December 6, 1955)
