Default Antique Shops

Posted By: jay behrens

As Scott mentioned, if youa re going to hit antique stores, it really helps to have a working knowledge of other collectibles. I've been able to find plenty of sports memorabilia over the years, including many Hartland statues, but never any cards. I've found a few Victorian scrapbooks, but never any with baseball cards in them. My broad knowledge of other collectibles makes going to antique stores and estate sales bearable since I can usually find something to flip quick for a few buck. Most recently a neat die-cut store display for Winchster rifles that I got for $100 and sold for $350 on ebay.
