I collected cards when I was a kid and got back into the hobby during the COVID down time in 2020. While I jumped head first into football, basketball, and baseball, I have now put focus on Bowman Baseball. I still have some good investments from football mainly, nothing earth shattering.
The hobby has changed from when I was a kid getting that pack of Topps baseball cards with the gum. It's a LOT more expensive. Crazy expensive. But considering you can get the autographs and true limited edition cards that will carry value puts a twist on how things work.
I've come close to working with a cousin on breaking boxes and might if things work out.
Feel free to share any of your favorite cards here and to discuss the hobby!
Here is perhaps my favorite card…a Topps Relic card with a piece of bat from Babe Ruth, a piece of bat from Mickey Mantle, and a piece of jersey from Lou Gehrig. This card 2/10 in this variation and was graded a 9 by PSA.
