Traveling to Houston in a couple of days. Any good card shops in the area? Obviously, pre-war and vintage is the primary focus. Thought I saw a thread on this awhile back, but I couldn't locate it. Thanks.

A quick Google search is always handy for a bit of info... I have no idea how good they are as I don't know the places. (I moved from Houston almost exactly 30 yrs ago.) I doubt many are around from then

My fading memory says Sports Collectibles of Houston closed last year
And here is the newspaper story which verifies that memory http://www.houstonchronicle.com/spor...of-6103944.php Rich

Yes, Sports Collectibles of Houston closed last year. The only 'real' card shop left is Houston Sports Connection. If you're looking for pre-war, you'll have to ask to see it. He keeps most of it put away in the back. His asking prices on the pre-war are a little high, but he could care less if he sells it or not (that's why it's kept in the back). For everything post-war, he has a good selection.

Howard Lau, presuming he still owns Houston Sports Connection has been around forever and is a good person. You'd enjoy chatting with him at the very least
