MY START TO COLLECTING BASEBALL CARDS

Growing up at a very young age, I was introduced to collecting baseball cards.

There was nothing like the feeling of opening up a pack of baseball cards with the smell of the pink gum stick that was included in most baseball card packs.

Whether it was a wax, cello or rack pack, I enjoyed the thrill of seeing Major League Baseball stars pictures on the front and on the back view their stats and personal bio.

My DNA indicates I’m a New York Yankees fan but when I started collecting baseball cards I kept getting Mike Schmidt baseball cards in the packs I opened. He was a great third baseman from the Philadelphia Phillies who was later elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown.

So with the help of baseball cards, I also became a fan of the Phillies along with the Yankees.

Baseball card collecting at a young age was an innocent time in my life and something I pursued as an active hobby growing up.

EXPANDING TO COLLECTING OTHER SPORTS CARDS & ODD-BALL CARDS

Later on I went on to also collect football, basketball and even hockey cards. Yeah, I was hooked!

I even collected Star Wars trading cards! Yes, I’m dated myself…but growing up I was a huge sports fan across the board.

Having collected over 120,000 sports cards by my late teenage years, lets just say I’ve done my fair share of sports cards collecting! 🙂

BECKETT COLLECTIBLES – MORE THAN PRICE GUIDES

For about a decade or more, I was not active in collecting sports cards or sports memorabilia; however, one trusted source is still around.

I used to purchase their various publications to price out my cards and memorabilia. They have very elaborate information for sports enthusiasts who are into sports card collections.

Over the years Beckett Media has evolved into an industry leader in providing great industry insights with their articles along with providing very accurate pricing for your sports cards & memorabilia collection.

In addition, they have become a big player in the grading & authentication services sector of sports card collecting. You can also check & track the value of your collection. You can submit your cards to them and receive a verified certification number.

I’ve had a relationship with Beckett for decades now. Originally as a consumer. For the past 5+ years as a publisher; publishing their promotions. I knew I wanted to support them when I connected with them to share some of their deals for you.

WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU

Whether you have a bunch of sports cards laying around your home and want to price or grade them. You might want to sell cards now or down-the-line. You might want to have an idea of what the prices and rates are going for these days in the hopes of making some purchases. You might want to upgrade your collection in the hopes of making more money by having your cards graded.

Whatever it is, I would suggest purchasing the sports guides subscriptions from Beckett Media today and/or use their card grading & authentication services.

They will support you by keeping you on top of your sports cards and memorabilia game. It will give you the option to make some money if you decide you want to sell your items.

Imagine if you had bought a pack of cards and you saw a rookie card of one of these great players:

Football: Tom Brady, Emmitt Smith, Jerry Rice
Baseball: Aaron Judge, Bryce Harper, Shohei Ohtani
Basketball: Michael Jordan, LeBron James, Stephen Curry
Hockey: Wayne Gretzky, Alex Ovechkin, Sidney Crosby

You would have a great investment in your hand today! With so many stars rising in sports today, it’s a great time to consider investing in your favorite players and teams.

So whether you are a baseball, football, basketball or hockey fan, there’s no off-season for the ultimate year-long sports fan! This is a home run in my book.
