My grandfather pulled one of those Reggie Jackson autos from Upper Deck back when I was 5 or 6. He had Mantle, Aaron, etc cards that burned up in a house fire about 25 years ago but the Reggie survived. It's now the crown jewel of my humble collection, along with the newspaper clipping from the local paper that interviewed him about it. Things were different back then. RIP Grandpa

[@thepryancollection7441]

RIP Grandpa and what a legendary pull! And yes, finding one of those was a huge deal and warranted fanfare. Thanks for sharing

[@shazedkhan2252]

Thank you Patrick for sharing your magical collection. You are a wonderful story teller , I really enjoyed this one. Good work Geoff and SCI team !

[@johnnygamecock1249]

Well said, the stories are awesome!

[@thepryancollection7441]

Very kind of you to say - thank you - and thanks for taking the time to watch

[@roberthill3703]

Man his story and his collection is truly unbelievable. Definitely some motivation! Thanks Geoff!

[@thepryancollection7441]

I have been VERY lucky to have some of these cards and very lucky to be a part of the sports card community. Thanks for taking the time to tune in

[@jamesrfb]

Patrick: you have an absolutely awesome collection! Thanks very much (to you and Geoff) for sharing it with us. :)

[@thepryancollection7441]

Appreciate the compliment! Glad you enjoyed the video... happy 2025

[@VanillaThunder81]

This type of collection video is where Taint Wilson does his best work. Amazing collection and great stories.

[@ballislife9989]

😅 Luis Taint

[@corneliusblackwood9014]

😂😂😂 this guys name is “Taint” ? The hell were his parents thinking?

[@LB2123]

Love these style videos, and Patrick did a great job storytelling

[@CHRISG612]

I disagree. Jeff and everyone else know the history. Show the card and let Jeff do the talking about the history and why they are iconic. This is his perspective because he owns them so his opinions are going to be jaded.

[@Bowman_is_king]

I really like this dude and how he has so much knowledge of the cards he collects. This man is definitely a collector and reminds me of the good in the hobby. Great video great collection much appreciated.

[@thepryancollection7441]

Very humbling to have you say that. Thank you.... I think i love the STORIES of cards as much as I love cards themselves

[@chgymnastics]

That 2015 McDavid RPA is an incredibly card, but I would argue that the 2005 SP Authentic Future Watch Auto or the 2005 The Cup RPA for Sidney Crosby & Alex Ovechkin are more iconic! Two absolute legends who will go down as all-time greats, both with their instantly recognizable top-tier rookie cards from the same year!

[@thepryancollection7441]

Very fortunate to own The Cup Crosby RP and a young guns Ovechkin. Just didn't make the video. Awesome cards all around. Hockey is underrated

[@charlievillamater1467]

Pls do a part 2 geoff! Amazing interview 🙌🏻

[@cambell-yi2gh]

The Bo Breaker was another cool Bo Jackson card from the 90s. Love this collection!! That McDavid card is one of the best looking sports cards of all time. Pele & Cracked Ice Luka as well. Great taste & feel for the signatures and aesthetic. The baby blue Griffey!!! Come ON!!!! WOW. So cool.

[@thepryancollection7441]

Interestingly, i have a "back up" box of cards that I love and ALMOST made the main box of cards.... the bo breaker is in there! Love that card

[@noogie1]

This is awesome. I've been collecting since I was 1988. Nothing is my collection is as good as what he has, but I love seeing stuff like this.

[@thepryancollection7441]

Thanks for the compliment. The key to any collection is loving what you have and appreciating cards of all value. Happy 2025!

[@HereForAStorm]

Man, PSA used to be much more forgiving... they were super kind to that 48 Jackie with the 20+ year old serial number. That card would maybe get a 4 or 5 today

[@34jazzman]

Crazy collection.

[@papajim460]

Awesome collection as I always see something new when Pat explains what he has and why! Thanks for doing this with him and sharing! 🎉

[@kevinjohnson9468]

Papa Jim!

[@bigh66666]

That Messi is the best long term hold of all items...

[@chrisduckz]

Agree. Arguably the greatest player of all time. From a non US sports fan - it’s the only one I’d actually want to own.

[@u_s_a_cards]

man, what an education you gave Goof! great collection, Pat!

[@tubenachos]

Who is Goof??

[@CK-vf7ws]

Bra,, not sure how this one got me like that,, but i couldn't stop laughing for like 10 minutes.. 😂👍

[@u_s_a_cards]

@ 🤣 iykyk. Goof needs more sports card lessons like this.

[@awbobsagetable]

@@u_s_a_cards yes, the guy selling scammy repacks is certainly the pinnacle of knowledge in the hobby!

[@P99-v6n]

Wow! This guy's collection is amazing!

[@rudymedrano1]

The Ali card was my favorite what a piece of art 💯

[@RonLoranger-cz9tb]

What a beautiful collection.

[@tiggerz3574]

Love his interesting stories about each item and do a part two on those cut autographs that had the Helen Keller 🎉

[@thepryancollection7441]

The helen keller is a literal show stopper. Always gets a good reaction and dialogue from friends who visit. Appreciate your kind words

[@Bangpaulxu]

Amazing collection but the stories behind it all was even better❤❤❤

[@NomahsSportsCards]

This was an awesome video. Thanks Geoff and Patrick for the very entertaining deep dive!

[@HR4days]

Amazing collection. Great video. Thank you! 😊

[@mikehamm007]

Rich guys are my favorite collectors 💪. Great show, enjoyed the story and seeing freshly printed cards from history 😂.

[@izzycolon82]

Beautiful collection 🔥🙏

[@jaketrustin]

Dannngggg!! This is so cool! I wish I could sit in that room and look through that collection myself. So cool! I love seeing people like this guy invest so much of their wealth into the hobby.

[@KeyKiller74]

Truly owing a golden rare ticket from Jackie 1st game 🎫

[@etlnyr74]

i just bought a Mantle PSA 6 such a sweet card

[@dean-marr]

Wow, great video Jeff, and wonderful collection.

[@UTPATS1]

One of the best episodes I’ve watched!

[@ReturnOfAMac]

That Jerry Rice and Montana are so nice. Have the same ones in my collection at home. Just need to get them graded.

[@TheRealDealMemorabilia]

Awesome collection, thanks for sharing!!!

[@jasonharrison5048]

Love boxing 🥊 that Ali card is 🔥!!!!

[@matthewtuxhorn9117]

I have the 1986 Topps Steve Young in PSA 10. It's my all-time favorite card.

[@CHRISROYALSCHIEFSFAN]

Such a awesome collection!

[@dazporterz1282]

Love seeing these high end collection videos 😊 keep them comming

[@davidcarlos4350]

Can i be honest … i thought id be hating on this guy for having all types if expensive cards…. But id love to have some of these historical cards… just for that reason its dope history

[@fgh2756]

Thanks for providing technical and easy to follow videos.

[@trevholiday]

Amazing collection! 🤙

[@Prokotaco]

Amazing video, thanks for sharing you guys!!!!

[@RonnieHall-x2j]

Really enjoyed this one! I was on Ebay bidding on some of these cards while watching :)

[@Hectekk]

Thanks for these videos guys.

[@Chipper_slabs]

I can not believe that he didn’t include a Desert Shield Chipper.

[@Nogame7_Cards]

Amazing pc. The Frank Thomas nnof believe actually came from the northeast. There are several other cards that have now been identified as having the same error. There was some obstruction that ran diagonally across the sheet. Very cool

[@Darren-xj7fg]

michigan

[@pamerekal720]

great video, great collection! Greetings from Greece

[@Jtevkicksandcards]

Amazing collection

[@Nogame7_Cards]

Unpopular opinion. Secondary signed cards should grade authentic only. There is no Tom Brady autograph on 2000 bowman checklist. Just because he is on the card, does not make it part of the set. It should still be looked at as altered.

[@gleblanc83]

Amazing collection and awesome interview, that hour flew

[@pjfreak99]

This was so great! Keep stuff like this coming!

[@smittywerbenjaegermanjense2350]

The graded 2009 Basketball HOF ticket with crying Jordan next to it 😂😂😂😂

[@tubenachos]

Now this is a mancave just wow 👀 🔥

[@hainzyy]

The nonmention of Josh Allen hurt a bit as a Bills fan when talking about buying modern QBs vs a psa 1 or 2 of montana, etc.... Haha great video and love the knowledge shared!

[@tmntmania]

Wow the greatest collection ever

[@corneliusblackwood9014]

I’ve got that 86 Jordan card, signed, it’s been saved in a case since I opened it. I have no idea the quality, I don’t collect cards really just as a kid. It’s one of my prized possessions, along with some other Jordan autos.

[@20thCenturyMan80]

Awesome vid! So cool!

[@matthewelliott2213]

Junk wax in the background--a man after my own heart...

[@TonyMontana-ni5gs]

Tyvm!

[@brianbunch2584]

Very cool video and very nice collection

[@JacksonWiggy-by2zq]

Yo great video man I love your videos and you are one of the reasons I got into sports cards

[@LSUtiger318]

Wow that’s an awesome room to have 😮

[@mikeywestside8509]

That Dwayne Johnson card was amazing

[@victorstandar2716]

Really good video, fun to watch, what a dream room!

[@stevebaildon7241]

Amazing Patrick

[@zacharymccullough4625]

The icing on this incredible collection would have been if that Bonds rookie was the o-pee-chee copy or both . I'm still kinda steamed that they didn't put the Bo Jackson future stars in the opc set

[@HighSpeedCardChase50]

Love that Star Jordan 101 auto!

[@Mr1002brady]

I love it .. nice stuff.

[@StadeumSportsCards]

Love the Ali Master Collection.

[@BigDirtDawg]

For all the guys that say cards aren’t investments. I’d say 30k into 400k is one hell of an investment

[@Firecracker321g]

I absolutely love the collection, but how is that Jackie Robinson a PSA 8? Am I looking at the card wrong

[@mikeramey1033]

PSA dosent deserve a cut of MY cards price...

[@timless1526]

Maybe it’s just the lighting but it looks like that Jordan rookie has whitening on the top right corner

[@afinch1992]

I didn’t realize Tim Dillon collected cards

[@irishjug8208]

Great video.

[@dopemoney23]

TEXAS IN BUILDING !!!! Love that blue ink Griffey

[@brdnl3]

I can remember as a kid getting the frank thomas nnof and throwing it away cause it was a messed up card

[@adamdelunger9211]

Love his collection, BUT.....he said he didn't want to take a risk on cracking Walter PSA 10 to a BGS and not only 3 cards later. He said he did it on MJ rookie 😂 SMH

[@russkcpa]

1952 Topps Mantle PSA 7 (perfect centering) coming to Goldin 100 auction in January.

[@Mike-vq4rv]

I watched the entire video and enjoyed the videos and stories. I’m of a similar age as both of you so I could totally relate. Only nitpick is Was there a bet to see how many times “iconic” could be uttered in a 1 hour video? 😂

[@johnwaynecollection]

I prefer THIS content over listening to “hobby crooks/drama” or the newest “rookie” of the month any day. I want to highlight the people who actually made the right decisions and disciplines to stack a WINNING portfolio and what they did to do it. I learned the most about the hobby and which cards to actually buy from learning from these type of collectors. THIS…. Is what investing looks like kids. I’ve said this 20 times on this channel and I’ll write it out again kids. THE BEST CARDS ALREADY EXIST! They’re not waiting in that next pack.

[@gustavoorduno942]

Awesome video !!!!!

[@DellDuncan4]

This is awesome !!

[@constipatedinsincity4424]

I have 3 of Tyson Rookie

[@hamm_bone_hobbies1302]

Every collector dream

[@Ovpeels]

My brother has a jerry rice 86 rookie autograph, psa 6

[@kamakoa]

Nice

[@FT-gv5no]

I wish they would show the price of what the card is worth

[@mykaelmcmahan116]

That ali is now my holy grail. Wow

[@junkwaxmuseum8878]

Well spoken

[@benjamincollins9465]

I’m jealous, I like Turtles 🐢

[@sportscastercanada]

Geoff, I have to admit feeling a little disappointed after watching your Kmart rip video, but you’ve made up for it in spades! 🤣

[@daveyusmc4863]

I’m a card collector not a seller and some of the things I go for are low value, but just mean a lot to me. I don’t ever chase items for the 💰 Is this normal?? I’m always seeing this is worth so much. Some I just don’t care 🤷‍♂️

[@boyova1]

Excellent show, thank you. Kept my interest all the way through.

[@neildarlington1655]

I met hulk hogan at 7-11 in Hollywood he signed and took photos and told me to hold his beer

[@cgbc61]

Geoff’s brain turns off when the hockey cards come out

[@Ben-zi6gc]

It’s my bday

[@leonmarsh9196]

Everyone has one

[@Ben-zi6gc]

@ when is ur bday

[@leonmarsh9196]

Ask your mum

[@Ben-zi6gc]

@ ur not him

[@Darren-xj7fg]

If I had money I would buy great cards

[@officialghetty]

PSA would never give a 86 fleer Jordan a 10 these days now that it’s worth 200k+ luckily this guy did it before the covid boom

[@liverust5]

Wow a guy with more money than geoff

[@colbymannion9581]

been waiting for this!! two goats for sure!

[@jaredsandoval1941]

Unrelated side note but Wish you could do a pack opening with Brett Favre to find his 92 high series stadium club though i as well as any other real true fan knows his draft year is 91 but 92 can bring much more
