Any Baseball Card Shops in Michigan ????

[that T206 Guy]

I am Back in the Hobby

I have not seen a Baseball Card Shop in Many Many Years.

Are there any Baseball Card Shops left in Michigan?

[jb67]

There is one located in downtown Rochester. Rochester Sports Cards and Memorabilia. 407 S Main St, Rochester, MI 48307.

LOL there's this thing called the internet now that's great for looking stuff up...

There are a couple shops in Grand Rapids, but I’d only visit them if I lived within a 10 mile radius.

Is it a good store?

You know of any others.

Yeah, and it lists alot that are out of business.

And Some are Far Away.

Even if they are open I don't want to waste my time if they are no good.

Yeah, that is Two Hours Away.

Guess I should have been more specific.

Any in the Metro Detroit Area?
Ann Arbor Area
Lansing Area

Also, Any Shows?

I used to go to the Big Ones at Gibraltar Trade Center but that Place is Out of Business Now?

Did they Move that Show to Another Location?

your OP merely asked if there were any shops. Plus I just found it amusing. I would argue between the internet and a phone you could still do this yourself, but asking for advice is certainly cool too.

This may help, I have used this reference a lot.

Kruk Cards is in MI. Address etc is:

Address: 210 Campbell St, Rochester, MI 48307
Phone: (248) 656-8803

I suspect for pre-war you would have to ask for their inventory as they deal mainly in post-war. They used to have a lot of sheets and oddball sets. They have too much oddball stuff to list so it would be worthwhile calling for regional issues etc.

Legends Sports and Games in Grand Rapids is the only one on the West side that's worth it for any vintage material.

Last time I was there they had a ton of Goudey Wide Pens, some blankets and other stuff. They usually get any of the vintage finds from this side of the state.

They have some, but limited. Last time I saw a couple Hassans, some T206 and T205. I think there was a couple CJs too if I remember. I wasn't in the market at the time so I don't recall details. I was just there last week.

They got a nice run of Mayo Cut Plug football a year or so ago. Not sure if they have any left from that find. No Old Judge that I've ever seen.

Things come and go quickly there and fortunately there aren't a huge number of vintage collectors in the area so your chances are always good.
