My first post on Bluesky! Here to connect with card collectors, particularly those interested in Japanese and North American baseball and wrestling (vintage and modern). To commemorate the event: a recently acquired Japanese telephone card of Brad the Animal Lesley.
NPB fans: know where to find info on teams' Winter activities? I was told last year, for example, the Swallows (I think?) had some sort of training in Shikoku. Anyone know anything about such things?

Another 1976 Yamakatsu - Terry Funk!

1976 Yamakatsu Harley Race. Thrilled to find this at a second hand store in Osaka. It's tough to find.

Japanese wrestling fans: how long does a typical Marigold show last? I hope to squeeze one in in Tokyo next month but have another obligation afterwards.

Fans of Japanese professional baseball: 1) have you bought NPB tickets via stubhub? 2) Have you had success buying Hanshin Tigers tickets via their website? For the latter I am being directed to special tickets for foreigners, and these tickets are sold out. Am I missing something?

Japanese baseball fans: what is the best stadium in which to take in an NPB game? I've only been to Meiji Jingu Stadium. I can't imagine a better baseball atmosphere exists!

Sadly, there are not enough Terry Gordy cards out there. Here's a great one, IMHO: 2011 BBM Legend of Champions card #54. #wrestlesky #wrestlingcards

1997 BBM Sparkling Fighters is a beautiful set that doesn't get enough hobby love! But then again Japanese wrestling cards in general should get more hobby love! Here's card 52 - The Great Sasaki #wrestlesky

Missed #wrestlingcardwednesday again this week, but had to post this mail day awesomeness: 1954-55 Parkhurst Bobo Brazil Lucky Premium back version in SGC 4. Any other vintage wrestling card collectors out there on Bluesky? I am 5 short for this set and looking to trade!

Big fan of Japanese telephone cards featuring baseball players. Here's Ichiro!

Happy NPB season to all who love Japanese baseball! To celebrate: a picture of a 1972 menko JCM15a Sadaharu Oh.
March 16, 2025 at 4:57 PM
1986 Super Mario Bros round menko. Super fun collectibles from Japan that don't get enough hobby love, IMHO.

The quest for golden age wrestling autos continues! Latest pick up: 'Jumping' Jom Brunzell! #wrestlesky
March 9, 2025 at 2:56 PM
Happy #wrestlingcardwednesday (is this still a thing??). After a recent bulk purchase and a few new singles, I am at 68/75 of the 1954-55 Parkhurst set. Anyone out there collect it, too? #wrestlesky
March 5, 2025 at 1:20 PM
1992 WCW Magazine cards, still in magazine. First Cactus Jack card! Some debate as to whether the Steve Austin card is his 'rookie'- the 1991 Cromy WCW is a year earlier. Regardless, these cards are awesome. #cardsky #wrestlesky
February 25, 2025 at 4:57 PM
1981-94 Klector's Cab Cards Jackie Robinson PSA 8. A fun card and very difficult find. #cardsky #thehobby

The quest to snag autos of Golden Era wrestling personalities continues. Pretty excited about today's comc pick up: the Doctor of Style, Slick, with COA! #wrestlesky #thehobby
February 8, 2025 at 3:24 PM
Happy #wrestlingcardwednesday everyone! Where are all the wrestling card collectors on Bluesky? One of my 2025 collecting goals is to pick up autos of 80s wrestlers, including (particularly?) obscure ones. Have any for sale or trade?
February 5, 2025 at 12:15 PM
