Card Room Tour Version VII - Major Facelift

[@adavis688]

This is so great! Always love seeing someone like me who loves sports and comic books too.

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks. I love both hobbies.

[@robintaylor-mockingeemill8223]

I like to see how others display their collections too

Enjoyed the tour. I also enjoy seeing how others organize, store, and display their collections. I’m always struggling to find a dedicated space where my collection can call home.

Thanks for sharing,that was awesome with the woodworking as I like to do my own projects as well,so glad you get to work with your dad,that is so special and don't take it for granted as my dad passed in 1995 and miss him every day. Thanks again,see in Chicago!

Thanks James. See you next week.

Thanks Rick. My dad is definitely always willing to help. In fact, he enjoys it.

This is my dream. You, John K, & John R / Wade Boggs Fan have among the BEST furniture storage setups & rooms I’ve seen on YT

[@steelcitydw]

It's funny. I've heard your pops' voice so many times on GAOC. First time seeing the legend himself! Thanks Mike for sharing your card room. Your storage solutions have inspired some creativity for my own card storage!

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks Dan. Appreciate it

[@ClementeCollector]

Great use of the space you have! Love the new beast for comics. Can’t believe how many autographs you have on the wall and they are so unique. So cool!

Thanks Theo.

Always great to see how folks store and arrange their collections no matter what it is. Thanks again

[@thedrewavintagelegacy6455]

Even with a jig that's an insane amount of dovetails especially using plywood for the sides. I couldn't see any blowout. Your son did an excellent job Great room tour. You did a brilliant job storing and displaying so much in a tight space without looking like a yard sale. Very nice.

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks Drew. You are right, it was pretty amazing that Palmer cut all of those dovetails without hardly any blowout. He did have a jig, but you have to be so careful with the router when cutting.

[@thedrewavintagelegacy6455]

As you know it's a lot harder, even with a jig, than most people realize. Really well done

[@BaseballCollector]

Most people have zero idea how hard it is.

[@ACollectorsDream]

What an incredible card room. Really enjoyed the tour. Awesome wood work, truly a beautiful piece of art.

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks Orlando.

I'll never get tired of looking at the 500 HR club poster. One day I will get it back. Your dad is the man. Love your dad.

Thanks Kev. My dad's shop makes many people jealous when they see it.

[@BaseballCollector]

You just love that you got a shoutout!! LOL

[@ReindeerStudios]

@@BaseballCollector that too! 😂

[@Johndeplume.]

Love the passion for the hobby, Mike... and also love seeing how collectors store their items. I've compiled a large collection, which is stored away in folders and boxes (not presented). A few framed items (in storage). I always tell myself that the cost involved in framing/presenting items could be better spent on making/acquiring more items - and so the cycle continues. One day I'll get around to it! 🙂 Great to see how you've got three generations of your family involved in making, what will become family heirlooms for future generations. We're all merely custodians for future generation, after all. Keep up the great work, Mike! New subscriber, but have seen you on many other related channels. Looking forward to watching your past and future uploads. 👍

[@BaseballCollector]

I totally get the mental struggle between quality storage and buying more items for the collection. Keep watching. I mention other channels all the time.

[@LegendsNeverDieCollection]

Really enjoyed the update Mike, this looks great! Love the storage “twin cousins” of The Beast! Bobbleheads looking good too!

[@cyguy29]

Now that's a tour that's worth the time! Great additons and kudos to your daughter for the arrangement, and of course your son and dad. The blood makes it even more special Appreciate you sharing.

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks so much. It takes a village to make a great card room. LOL

[@187MDK]

I have been trying to come up with ideas for card storage and this video is what I needed!!! Thank you 🙏

[@BaseballCollector]

Hopefully it inspires you to do something crazy cool

[@RatedRookie]

Absolutely phenomenal, Mike! A perfect card room for you. Awesome that 3 generations helped make it happen

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks Josh. Looks like you need to make a trip back to Dallas to see it in person.

[@RatedRookie]

@@BaseballCollector 100%

[@SportsCardJungle]

Thanks for the tour! What an amazing card room, even in a small space. The vintage rotating display case right inside the room caught my eye. The three generations behind the scenes was a nice added benefit. Maybe they can help you build out a bigger room next time! lol.

[@BaseballCollector]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@stuke1976]

Loved your card room and the new Hulk for comics. Even more impressed with your dad's shop and skills.

[@BaseballCollector]

My dad has some mad skills. It skipped a generation but luckily my son got a full dose of it.

Amazingly well put together and organized room. Seeing your comic books in those magnificent new cabinets, sure beat my 14 long boxes. Sold my whole comic collection before moving to Northern Virginia sadly but moved my whole sports collection. Helped with the move and got myself a fantastic baby grand piano. Still collecting just not comics. Nice tour.

[@BaseballCollector]

Thanks Larry. I got tired of all of the long boxes as well.

We must be somehow related. What a wonderful room and video! I too collect Spider-man and Star Wars comic books, baseball art (originals, one original Perez and a few Graig Kreindlers) and Nolan Ryan. One of my favorite comic books is a Batman from 1972 that has the exact date stamp of the day I was born. I too have glass on my tables that cover random cards as well! I went to the 500 home run show and got my poster signed that has been framed (Reggie didn't sign at that show because he broke his wrist and got him later). The wooden displays are exceptional.

Very nice Mike. Still waiting to hear if your son is going start building beast jrs. Great tour! Your dad has an incredible shop.

[@BaseballCollector]

Not sure just yet. I spent $2,000 just for the wood for the new comic cabinets. So you can imagine how much they will actually cost. We are just not sure if there is a big enough market for that price scale

[@dougstewart5020]

[@MrGretzky9966]

Wow o didn’t know you were a comic book collector too. I used to be huge into comics but over the past 4 years I scaled down a lot. If I kept it all I have be around 7200 but I sold traded or gave away 74% of that. Im at 2200 now. Action comics and Archie books are my jam. You got my back into collecting certain baseball players. I have a huge hockey card collection but I collect mostly Wayne Gretzky stuff.
