À propos de cette écoute
Hello and welcome to Tales from the Tar Heel Traveler. Today we head to North Carolina to meet a man who has been collecting baseball cards for decades. What started as a childhood hobby has grown into a treasure trove of sports history.
“I remember buying my first card for a penny,” he says, recalling that dog-eared 1950s card that sparked his passion. Over the years, he’s tracked down rare gems like a 1914 Babe Ruth rookie card and a pristine 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle, calling each one “a time capsule of America’s pastime.”
He travels swap meets and auctions across the state, driven by the thrill of the hunt. “Every card tells a story,” he explains, whether it’s a rookie debut or a championship moment frozen in ink. For him, this isn’t just paper—it’s a connection to legends and to memories of afternoons spent dreaming big.
That’s our stop on Tar Heel Traveler. Thanks for listening, and keep chasing your own slice of history.
