When I first started collecting sports cards, I bought all different types of cards and memorabilia. A good friend that I went to shows with, gave me some sound advice. Pick one or two different players, teams or a type of memorabilia to focus on. That would give me a goal and would be less expensive.
When I began to collect cards and memorabilia, I had just moved to Northern California from my home state of Wisconsin. So I decided to collect sports cards and memorabilia of the Green Bay Packers and the Milwaukee Braves. My favorite all time player is Hank Aaron, so I also started collecting his cards and memorabilia. Being a big fan of Brett Favre and Bart Star, I started collecting their items too.
When I was living in California, I would go to the card shows whenever I had the chance. At that time, the mid 1980's and early 1990's, most of the card shows would have baseball players signing for a fee, generally around $4.00 to $10.00 per signature. I bought boxes of official baseball's and would take some along for the player's to sign. I learned very quickly that reading most of their signatures on the baseball's was like trying to read the doctors signature on a prescription. My solution was to also get the players card's and have them signed too.
As my collection grew, in order to keep the ball and card together, I purchased display stand's with both a cube for the ball and a holder for the card. I displayed these autographed balls and cards in my office. I had a hard time finding a decent display for just my sports cards. I searched the internet and couldn't find anything I liked. I located a wholesaler through Worldwide Brands, that sold some neat display stands for my sports cards and display stand's for my Riddell football helmet and hockey mask collection.
I really like the different displays this company has, so I worked out a deal with the wholesaler to open my own online store and sell these displays. Check the display's and my website let me know what you think. The website address is http://www.pnssportcardsdisplays.com.
