April 19, 2023 By David Seideman

Mike Ryan was the bravest of the brave throughout his long career as a fireman rushing in and out of burning buildings in Los Angeles. For the past 35 years, he’s also shown bravery in his approach to baseball card collecting, never backing down from the biggest challenges within the hobby. He acquired 512 of the 524 cards in the T206 set,  all in at least very good … [Read more...] about Retired Firefighter Was Undaunted by 1948-49 Leaf Baseball Set Challenges

Shop Talk: Vacations, Basketball Busy and Bear Clawed Babe

March 22, 2021 By Tony Reid

Spring break arrived here in central PA last week and with the shop's owner on a vacation to the Outer Banks, I was left in charge.  I had help from our buddy Zach for a few hours each morning, which definitely made the week more bearable. He assists in shipping the sometimes ungodly amount of orders we have on a daily basis. His help is always much appreciated. Beyond that, I … [Read more...] about Shop Talk: Vacations, Basketball Busy and Bear Clawed Babe

Minnesota Priest’s Cards Bring Strong Prices in Charity Auction

March 15, 2021 By Rich Mueller

Baseball cards can pay for a lot of scholarships. If you’ve got the right ones, anyway.

A Divine Collection? Priest Auctioning Off His Vintage Baseball Cards to Benefit Low-Income Students

March 11, 2021 By Lyell Marks

Many cosmologies revolve around helping the less fortunate, a principle that is embraced by Christians during the 40-day liturgical season of Lent. Some give up luxuries like coffee, others alcohol—but some use the time to look beyond themselves in an effort to provide for those who may not have many luxuries at all. Father John Ubel, rector of the Cathedral of St. Paul … [Read more...] about A Divine Collection? Priest Auctioning Off His Vintage Baseball Cards to Benefit Low-Income Students

Jackie Robinson Baseball Cards: A Guide to His Best

February 15, 2021 By Rich Mueller

Jackie Robinson baseball cards have always been popular and what few game worn jerseys, bats and other items have survived always sell for significant amounts of money.  While no mainstream card company really existed in the aftermath of World War II, there were cards issued of him in 1947 and by '48, bubble gum and cards were back together again and Robinson helped usher … [Read more...] about Jackie Robinson Baseball Cards: A Guide to His Best

The Southpaw Survivor – 5 Cool Warren Spahn Cards, Vintage and Modern

January 11, 2021 By Lyell Marks

Prior to his military service, Warren Spahn had little reason to believe he’d retire as the winningest left-handed pitcher in baseball history. In his rookie season with the Boston Braves in 1942, Spahn was only used in four games (two starts), yielding a discouraging 25 hits and 11 walks in 15 2/3 innings pitched. When duty called, Spahn hung up his spikes and spent three … [Read more...] about The Southpaw Survivor – 5 Cool Warren Spahn Cards, Vintage and Modern
