I Started A Card YouTube Cannel- Anyone Else Have One?

[vintagechris]

Hey Everyone,
I recently started a YouTube channel dedicated to collecting cards and was wondering if anyone else had a channel for cards?

I was inspired to start it by watching other card channels and wanting to document my card journey so family and friends can share in what is going on currently but most impoortantly for them to have something to remember me by when I am no longer around.

I started collecting in 1980 so I'm pretty late to the game as far as documenting the journey but I have posted a video about how I got started and also one about what it was like to collect in 1980.

The channel is called Stories in Cardboard as I believe those little pieces of cardboard tell countless stories about the players and teams but also about the people who collect them.

Check it out if you like and I would love to hear if anyone else has a channel to document their collecting.

Thanks Leon. The older I get, the more I realize I wish I had done more to document the journey. I think about some of the great written documentation of the hobby pioneers that you and others have shown and those are always my favorite threads. Can you imagine if we had video documentary of those guys?!!!

Not doing a channel.

But I like yours and good luck with it

Awesome! Is there any way you can "convert" these into podcasts?

You do realize if you like listening and not watching you can always keep you tube in the background so it's not the visual interruption. I do that with the About the Cards you tube (yes I know it's modern cards) or the Hobby Hotline (Yes also about modern cards) link each week

I realized after typing this is if you want the podcast to listen to on the car "radio" on your way to work or other places then your request makes more sense. Sorry but I was thinking of more traditional desktop (or working) computers

Nicely done.

I've listened to the occasional podcast about cards in the last year and they were pretty much just annoying. Just some dudes talking about what 10 cards have gone up in price, whether they will go up further, what cards don't seem to be going up in value, and what cards might someday really go up in value. Got old quick.

I agree. Most of them are younger guys bragging about their purchases. The current modern card market reminds me of how everyone is an "expert" in a bull stock market. I guess things are changing but paying $20k for a Jalen Hurts auto 1/1 makes no sense to me! Oh, back to the podcasts. There are two of them that I really like:

The Collector & The Dealer (bought some nice cards from "The Collector" who is a member of N54)
The Golden Age of Cardboard

Thanks!

Thank you Octavio, I'm a guest on several Pod/Web Casts including the aforementioned Hobby Hotline once a month or so

I also tape a few episodes with Dr. Beckett each month and on those we go to discuss either.

1) Beckett Company History and how his personal history or company history can be applied to modern times

2) Various pre-1980 topics

3) Occasional tribute episodes

Regards

My You Tube Channel is only dedicated to my PreWar “Type Card” collection and not my entire collection of 50’s to Present Complete Sets.
If you like corny and cringe production and bad narration, check out my channel.
After I subscribe to yours…..

Yes, however, it's much easier to manage listening via podcast apps. FYI... I "listened" to the Red Zone all the way home from Boston yesterday.
