Just wondering if we post in this thread or is there a dedicated thread for Wrestling Cards?

Thanks in advance,

Doug

    I would just go ahead and post in this forum and just have "wrestling" in the title....(I will find it ).... there are numerous threads for different sets. I think it would be too much to have all wrestling under one thread with multiple conversations going on at once. Most of the wrestling card threads are put into a few threads outside of the wrestling all stars.....plenty of those threads to choose from.image

    The 1982 Wrestling All Stars Hulk Hogan is just an awesome trading card.

    It has everything you could ask for in a card. Low print run, condition sensitive, highly sought after set and a superstar. The perfect storm.

    Here is a Hogan for you King. image

    DPeck was featured in SMR magazine that PSA gives its members......great accomplishment. I posted all the pics from the mag in one thread on here for all to see when it came out.

    The SMR which is the publication that PSA produces for their price guide did an article on the Wrestling All Stars and featured my sets.

    I took a fresh copy of the magazine with me to get signed by Hulk Hogan when I went to the grand opening of his beach shop in Clearwater. I got three of the Wrestling All Stars signed and three cards by Jimmy Hart.

    I want to get the other wrestlers who are alive to sign the magazine too.

    The Hogan pictured is one of my three PSA 9's.

    Thanks.

    I have not been collecting them anywhere near as long as Rob but in the nearly four years I have, I certainly have purchased quite a few.

    You have to collect what you like and I have more interest in older wrestling then I do the major sports.

    One of the things that is fun about the wrestling card market is it is still very much in the discovery phase. There are many great sets that have had very little grading activity and this creates oppurtunity.

    I am finding new cards all of the time to collect and it keeps it exciting. The distribution of many were in a manner that was not meant to be concerned about condition and this makes is very challenging to find nice cards from many sets making the hunt all the more rewarding.

    The other great thing is there is not a lot of information in the market place on many sets and this makes for nice buys if you are searching for them like I am. I just picked up another 10 sets this morning of a set that I am now accumulating at a tremendous price and I could never do that with cards from the major sports. Hopefully they are nice when I get them.

    It is nice to see others jumping into the mix and I look forward to seeing more of the cards you purchase.
