Abstract
Tutte found an excluded minor characterization of graphic matroids with five excluded minors. A variation on Tutte's result is presented here. Let { e, f, g} be a circuit of a 3-connected nongraphic matroid M. Then M has a minor using e, f, g isomorphic to either the 4-point line, the Fano matroid, or the bond matroid of K 3,3.
