Each Happy Hobby Sports Card Podcast episode has a handful of great sports card subjects, helping sports card collectors working with limited budgets!

⚾🏈🏀 Interviewing Vintage Sports Cards Expert, Michael Salfino!

It’s tough to get all the questions out in just an hour with a vintage sports cards expert, like Michael Salfino from The Athletic, but we do our best!

At first, we discuss his background and how we connected, including our time together writing about baseball cards over at The Athletic. But we also knew each other from competing in Tout Wars before that, which is one of the most competitive Fantasy Baseball leagues in the world!

We also discuss Salfino’s picks for his “Elite 8” vintage players and his rankings of who he believes are the eight greatest Topps-era vintage players whose cards we should be collecting. (The origin of this discussion was because he found my video on “The Dandy Dozen,” where I ranked my 12 favorite players whose cards people should collect.)

The podcast stays true to helping out sports card collectors who are working with a limited budget! Michael shares the guts of an upcoming article, where he lists one card for 12 superstar vintage players (seven baseball players, three football players and two basketball players) valued around $100 that we should pick up.
