We are coming to you live from The Philly show this weekend, where you'll find the best vintage cards available for purchase, unique items, and wonderful collectors like yourself. A recently-discovered Shoeless Joe Jackson card is at the show, too! Here is a sneak peek of the spectacular time we've had so far and how to find us tomorrow at the show!
The Philly show is a three-day convention, and we're loving every second of it. Walking into the main door of Hall A at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center, we took a few short steps and found the showroom. To the left is where athletes are taking photos and singing autographs, and just to the right in booth 210 is where we are ready to meet you. Home sweet home at booth 210! If you missed the show today, don't worry; we'll be buying collections and selling vintage cards for you on Sunday, too! Here are a few behind-the-scenes photos and videos from the amazing time we've had so far.
Much like our friend, Henry, the 12-year-old we helped purchase a Wayne Gretzky rookie card at The National, we were thrilled to meet young Liam today. Liam and his dad were interested in our 1956 Topps Roberto Clemente card. After a chat with dad, Liam is the proud new owner of this vintage beauty:
On Friday night, we let our hair down and enjoyed a prenominal trade night with our friends at Waxstars. Food, drinks, friends, and of course - cards!
One unique item we found is a 1912 T202 Hassan Triple Folder card. Over a Century ago, these cards were inserted into Hassan Cork Tip Cigarettes. Well before you purchased a pack of Topps cards with a stick of gum, cards were distributed in various tobacco products. These triple folder cards feature a pair of players bookending a photo. Take a close look at the Lord and Tannehill card below:
In the middle, sliding, is none other than Shoeless Joe Jackson! On the back of the card, Jackson's named isn't mentioned anywhere:
This was a very unique find! We are always interested in purchasing Shoeless Joe Jackson cards. You may recall the rare 1909 E-90-1 American Caramel Shoeless Joe card we purchased in an Attic in West Virginia!
When you stop by the Just Collect booth at the Philly Show tomorrow, first, we'd love to hear if YOU have a Shoeless Joe Jackson rookie card, and second - you'll definitely want to see the newest collection we purchased. This 1915 Cracker Jack Shoeless Joe card is currently on display at our booth:
We hope to see you tomorrow at The Philly Show!

If you can make the trip here like the son from my hometown did for this collection- we can make a deal at the office. We once met a father-son duo that drove eight hours from Virginia to meet us to sell a Michael Jordan rookie card stored in Tupperware since 1986 - great read here.

We've run into a wide range of people and collections over the last 25 years. Although Just Collect is known for buying vintage sports cards and especially vintage baseball cards, we are also extremely interested in buying non-sports cards, too!

We understand that many have put their heart and souls into building their collections. So when you're ready to sell, we understand the feelings that you're going through and will work with you to help you reach a decision that is a WIN/WIN, because if you're not happy, we're not happy.
Whether you have vintage cards or modern wax you want to sell, you can reach out to us any time!
