THE NATIONAL NOTEBOOK: Friday, 07/28/23

  • Saturday is our last day at The National so be sure to pop by the PWCC live stream booth at 1:30pm (local time) to watch the group breaks and say hi to me and Nick! Click here to get your teams!
  • Back to Friday!
  • Another hot day on the floor of The National but that didn't cool the interest of collectors who were out in full force.
  • A lot of glistening foreheads leaning over showcases checking out all the amazing cards and memorabilia.
  • Really cool to see all unique collections from table-to-table that reflect the personality of the collector/dealer.
  • Remember, there's no right or wrong way to collect. Collect what you like and have fun!
  • Starting to add to my Star Wars collection with the Star Wars guy here who turns out to be long time Jaspy customer Robert Parsons! (Got a Star Wars card from him; Pic below!)
  • Ran into the guy who sources the metal for Panini for their Impeccable line among others. There's a guy for everything!
  • Heard a story that Bubba Watson walked by a booth that had a flag from the 2012 Masters (he won) and – unprompted – he offered to sign the flag! What a mench!
  • Had a nice meeting with the Fanatics Live team and got some face time with a couple Fanatics C-Suiters.
  • And was that Michael Rubin that just walked by us?? Bossman Mike seemed to think so!
  • Nick and I cannot confirm or deny.
  • Nick Jaspy has been working hard and making deals and filling up backpacks, Zion cases, suitcases and shoe boxes full of awesome cards that are going to make their way back to the shop, group breaks and hit packs!
  • Last day at The National on Saturday so stay tuned for more news and notes!
  • Thanks to GTS for a great place to lounge!
