The Wayback Collector: Large Find of 19th Century Tobacco Cards Enters Hobby

May 19, 2019 By Anson Whaley

Finding even a small 19th century tobacco collection is a notable discovery. But when that collection includes hundreds of cards, it's a haul rarely seen. That was the case, however, with a collection recently acquired by Dave Hobson of BaseballCardBuyer.com, who was approached by the owner of approximately 800 19th century cards including both sports and non-sports … [Read more...]

Stick Save: NC Teacher Finds Vintage Bernie Parent Memorabilia At Thrift Store

April 8, 2018 By Bob D'Angelo

It’s fitting that a sixth-grade history teacher who loves hockey found a piece of hockey history. At a thrift store. In basketball-mad North Carolina. That’s what makes Chris Brindell-Watt’s story so compelling. Brindell-Watt, 49, has taught history and social studies at Cane Creek Middle School in Fletcher, North Carolina, for the past 12 years. He’s originally from … [Read more...]

May 24, 2017 By Bob D'Angelo

Jackie Robinson 1954 Topps cards

It's the kind of find that will make a vintage card collector drool. Someone inherits a stash of 1950s baseball cards but doesn’t want them.
