I'm joined by Damian @retrosoccercards for a conversation about collecting soccer cards before the explosion of this hobby niche. He has been a dedicated collector of Premier League cards since he first started collected with Topps Premier Gold 2003. The mindset and joy he finds collecting were cultivated in a time before there were big chases. It was about completion and binders preserving his memories and the history of the league in card form. As the landscape began to shift in 2013 with modern parallels, he retained his soul as a set collector and evolved his approach as the soccer card hobby's popularity has blossomed.
