What I believe tends to happen is as people get older they grow more nostalgic and they grow to appreciate history more and want to learn more about history. There are historical things I cared nothing about 30 years ago that I now find interesting, and that's because my love for history has grown. The same goes for players I had no desire to collect 30 years ago, my appreciation for their place in history has changed and I desire to collect them. Cards tell stories and the older people get, the more they like stories.

I actually think you’ll see more strength in vintage in early 2023. Guys my age (40’s) may be more cautious w/ their spending if the stock market continues to struggle. I’m seeing/tracking more and more 70-79 vintage sell at slightly higher prices and more often. The 70’s have a ton of value but are still very affordable, and as collectors look to add to their collections while watching their budget this appears to be a strengthening aspect of the hobby. My next few videos are also 1970s centric. Cheers!

Agreed. A few players like Clemente, Mays, Ryan, Aaron base cards seen some moderate gains, but most base HOFers remain really affordable. The only HOF RCs that really gained any value were guys like Schmidt & Brett and one could argue they are still undervalued. As many of us look to stretch our $$$ in 2023, 1970’s vintage looks very attractive as we look to build stronger vintage collections on tighter budgets.

I think this is the best argument for vintage football. As people who actually watched players like Stan Musial and Bob Gibson begin to die off, the appeal of these older baseball cards to new collectors are going to be more about history and less about emotion/nostalgia. I think when this generational shift happens and it's more about pure history, then vintage football will begin to gain some ground on vintage baseball in terms of prices.

You're probably right, but baseball was the number one sport in America for almost 100 years. It's a crucial part of our history. Plus, football fans generally don't care as much about the sport's distant past like baseball fans do. So I think vintage baseball will be just fine.

The answer is yes. Collectors tend to flock to older things such as coins, bank notes, comic books and military equipment/uniforms. It's not just in cards.

The low prices we see in Vintage Football is something I see as a good thing (unless you're trying to sell them) because it's a good way for those trying to get into vintage without having to spend a lot of money. I believe that in many cases, when potential collectors see the high dollar amount paid for Vintage Baseball, it can turn a lot of people away. I also think too that even with the popularity of Soccer (or Football to the Brits and Aussies) and Cricket with 3 to 4 billion fans, these two sports are hardly collected here in the States. It's very true that every generation kind of reverts back to their youth as they age so I do think that there will always be a portion of each generation that will collect vintage cards of players that they never saw growing up. Though I first started collecting vintage when I was 14, many of the players I collected had passed on 30-80 years prior to my birth. I've collected for many reasons but the more vintage I collected the more my own education advanced. I've kind of moved away from vintage Baseball because I've got most of what I wanted years ago and have found that a lot of what I do already have is very unaffordable if I were to purchase it today which surprised me a bit. Even as far back as 1972, collectors were complaining about the rise of vintage Baseball cards. I doubt I'm alone in that view either. Dustin, if you ever need a guiding hand in vintage Baseball, I'm always around.
@cardboardcheddah37152 жыл бұрын
The reason for high dollar values is the supply doesn’t meet the demand. Kids just aren’t going to be able to afford Sandy Koufax and Pete Rose rookies any more than Mickey Mantle. That makes sense to me. You can get into Villy Martin pretty cheap and that’s because of the demand….some vintage is dirt cheap. You can buy a 1887 common graded for a few hundred bucks. If that’s turning anyone off from collecting, I’m happy to have the elbow room.

For me, what stands out is a few things in comparing sports in vintage. 1) baseball was americas pastime and didn’t really get overtaken until the 90s. So there is history. 2) the sport (up until recently) hasn’t changed much. The last major change was really during the dead ball to live ball era. Basketball went from a fundamental/team league to superstar/no fundamentals/shooting 3s. NFL went from a running league to a passing league where you can’t touch the QB. So for other leagues, it is nearly impossible to compare eras unlike baseball.

Any sports cards outside of baseball are purchased with the sole purpose of selling them as soon as I can recognize a ROI.

Great video Dustin! I’m saying nothing new here, but significant playing days cards of Top 100 guys will always be in-demand. The beauty of vintage (and especially pre-war) is, the dwindling supply of it. And this scarcity is organic and not manufactured with stamped serial numbers. I believe younger generations will build fewer sets, so if there is a pocket of weakness in vintage, I think it is commons, semistars, and low-tier HOFers that people generally don’t care to own unless they are building sets. As for baseball itself - Major League Baseball has over 100 years of history, and even now continues to re-invent itself to stay relevant. We’ll see what effect the pitch clock, banning the shift, extra inning rules, etc. has on the flow and excitement of the game (it should improve). Fans and collectors are generally drawn to GOATs. VERY soon, Brady will retire - no more GOAT in football. LeBron will retire - no more GOAT in basketball. I see energy shifting back to baseball in the next 5 years as it becomes clear that we are watching one of the Top 5 centerfielders in history: Mike Trout. Also the 3B GOAT in Arenado, a true all-timer in Mookie Betts, and a unicorn in Ohtani. In addition, we’ll be watching an EPIC crop of 1st ballot HOFers enter the hall: Beltre, Cabrera, Pujols, Verlander, Scherzer, and Kershaw. THIS is why i’m excited about being a baseball collector. I love every era: past, present, and future.

15 years from now Football will be 1 and Soccer a clear 2 in the US.. the fan bases are much much more loyal as well. Baseball is fading fast and Basketball somewhat too..Basketball will continue to lose support in many demos as well..

we have already seen a disaster in the antique markets. no one wants grandmas heavy ugly furniture.. I think old cars and vintage baseball will drop off bigtime in the next 10-20 years.. sure the Mantles Aarons Mustangs and Camaros will always hold value and be desireable.. 99 percent of 30 yr olds dont want a 56 studebaker or Model T or a partial 1958 set or a third year Harmon Killebrew... the minute they are inherited they will be sent to sell and will flood the market.

Pick up all the Bonds cards you can. He is the best player of all time and soooo under-appreciated. The next generation of collectors will be more forgiving. While we’re at it, the Olympic committee should give Marion Jones’ her 5 Olympic medals back to her.

Definitely not fir Marion Jones. Cheating in track ain't the same as baseball. Different "supplements"

I think vintage will hold up better than modern cards because today’s kids do not collect sports cards. There will not be a bid for these cards in 30 years when today’s kids hit their peak earning years.

History tells us this is a uneducated take from someone who knows nothing about collecting ( let alone the history of) vintage and prewar cards.

I think Bonds, Clemens and their juicing brethren eventually get into the Hall. The more they use the term ‘PEDs’, and the less they use the term ‘steroids’, the sooner they’ll get in :)…Also, lookin out for that Jamarcus Russell/Chad Pennington duel auto card!…And man, dig these vintage baseball promos you’re including.

The all time great yes your Ruth's Cobbs gehrigs ect are safe as long as baseball as a sport is still relevant, The best investments are ones liberal woke fans can enjoy (aka any jackie robinson card) Also Pokemon is a better long term play Ask Gen Z if they know Willie Mays and then if they know Pikachu and watch the faces light up.
