I think what you're seeing right now across the

industry is one of the most healthy and vibrant

It's tough to pass on the money to be made Right

now. 20 20 has seen record breaking numbers for

Over 10 have sold for five hundred thousand

dollars or more. We sold a mike trout card

limited to one the super factor for three point

nine million. These are the two most expensive

basketball cards in the world that have publicly

traded. The resurgence has been building over the

last several years, largely driven by those in

their 30s and older who collected as kids and are

We all had this crappy experience of the card

companies flooding the market and then our cards

being worthless. But you fast forward 30 years.

You kind of have a remembrance and nostalgia for

how fun that was. With the onset of the pandemic,

card collecting exploded and now Wall Street and

What we have never had in the business are wealth

managers, money managers, hedge fund guys,

And so what we've been doing is just buying the

best of the best. We created a 20 million dollar

fund. Card Collecting is different from what it

But the crash of the 90s is still haunting.

Card makers and collectors are determined to

avoid repeating their mistakes and cash in on

I think cards are definitely having a moment.

But if you take a long term view of this, the

cards are here to stay from a from as an asset

If you were a kid growing up in the 80s and 90s,

more than likely you collected baseball cards and

your father told you they'll one day be worth a

lot of money. That's because your father saw his

card collection from when he was a kid become

valuable in the 1970s when a generation of boys

collections. For example, in the late 1960s, a

1952 Topps Mickey Mantle card, considered one of

the greatest vintage cards of all time, was worth

about a dollar. A decade later, it was worth

In 2006, a near perfect version of this card sold

for near two hundred eighty three thousand

dollars. And in twenty eighteen, a similar card

sold for just shy of two point nine million

A lot of people in my age in their mid 40s, you

know, we grew up in the 1980s and the baseball

So there are a lot of a lot of adults out there

now in my age range that grew up collecting

baseball cards and enjoying it and having fun

with it. It's difficult to put an exact value on

But David Liner of the Topps Company says around

its peak in nineteen ninety one, sales were

between one and two billion dollars in a given

year. What's hard is if you look back at the late

80s and the early 90s, it was really a boom about

It was less so about the NBA, NFL and the NHL,

And then the industry crashed all the cards niños

And then it burst when the company said, you know

what, we're going to make two million of these

Ken Griffey rookie cards but tell people that it

was much fewer. Most of my friends were similar

ages in the 30s, 40s, like our collections are

frankly worthless from that period of time.

And that that's why is the card companies,.

About 20 years later, those same kids grew up and

In nineteen ninety six, That's when the junk wax

In nineteen ninety six was the first year where

they really started serializing our cards and you

The reason that's really important is that people

who grew up in nineteen ninety six, they were

about eight to 10 years old collecting now

Right. So all the cards that I wanted when I was

a kid that I couldn't afford, now that I'm

working and I have some disposable income, people

like me are like I want to go and finally buy
