}Abstract We prove that, for every positive integer k , there is an integer N such that every 3-connected graph with at least N vertices has a minor isomorphic to the k -spoke wheel or K 3, k ; and that every internally 4-connected graph with at least N vertices has a minor isomorphic to the 2 k -spoke double wheel, the k -rung circular ladder, the k -rung Mobius ladder, or K 4, k . We also prove an analogous result for infinite graphs.
