Leighton's Loft

Leighton Sheldon of Vintage Breaks and Just Collect gives a packed episode, which includes a look at an amazing collection he purchased last week with a great story that includes, oh by the way, a couple Ted Williams Rookies and a Bronko Magurski card! You'll get a look at all of them and more! You'll see a gaggle of Polar Bear T206 Cards and hear of Leighton having lunch with Flick from A Christmas Story! Don't miss this one!  

J5 fills in for Leighton on the Loft, giving us a very first look at a collection purchase that was closed just minutes before the show. After a look at the pen box it arrived in, John shows us this trove of 1951 and 1952 Topps including a Ted Williams and yes, a Mantle rookie! Then J5 gives us a look at a small sample of the huge Pennsylvania Collection that landed late last week!  

Vintage Breaks and Just Collect just got their grades from SCG on a stack of legendary cards and J5 walks us through them. This is as good a stack of cards as you are likely to see anytime soon, so get your popcorn and join J5!

Leighton Sheldon of Vintage Breaks talks about the $2 million bounty Memory Lane put Aaron Judge's 62nd HR ball. Then he talks about his trip to the Valley Forge Show and the changes he's seen in the Vintage and Modern markets in the hobby and what might be behind them. And at the show he showed us what he purchased for Chef Ted with the $500 shopping spree Ted won at Vintage Breaks. You are going to love this card!

Leighton Sheldon of Just Collect and Vintage Breaks tells us how card values can vary within a grade and how you should deal with that value range. He also shows a great Joe Namath Rookie card that Vintage Breaks is giving away as a bonus (video is available on Spotify and FB live), and discusses how Aaron Judge's historic HR run will affect his card's value and how you should be approaching your Judge cards (and you may be surprised!).

It's the most anticipated edition of Leighton's Loft ever! Leighton Sheldon of Just Collect and Vintage Breaks shares with us the incredible adventure of The Scottsdale Collection, with over 100 Goudey baseball cards from 1933 and 1934, which included close to a combined two DOZEN Gehrigs and Ruths (including all four varieties of the Babe's)! It's an incredible story with a look at each and every Ruth and Gehrig! Don't miss this episode. You can also see the video of this episode on Spotify and the Leighton's Loft Facebook page!

Leighton Sheldon is back on the Loft and in this episode, he shows us the result of the authentication process on two autographs that are potential purchases of Just Collect. Find out if these autographs from Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner and authentic and listen as we talk about the autograph market and ask who you would most like to get an autograph from. 

J5 is filling on for Leighton Sheldon once again this week, spending most of the show teasing us about what he can't show us yet about the huge purchase of a '33 Goudey  collection in Arizona last week and what he can't tell us yet about  a possibly bigger and better collection purchase that is in the works. Otherwise there's lots of great chatter with our hobby friends, especially about which set collection you are working on and why or what set is next on your list!

J5 fills in on this edition of Leighton's Loft as Leighton is on the road trying t close the deal on a major collection of Goudey baseball cards in Arizona. Hear all about it and see some photos, too! J5 also tells us about Vintage Breaks "The National After Party" promotion and tells us how in the modern market at least, pitchers cards aren't getting the same kind of love that hitters cards are getting. Oh, and there's boy band talk, and even a mention of Amelia Earhart's rookie card!  

More Musings about the National from Leighton Sheldon of Just Collect and Vintage Breaks. Has the National gotten too big? Leighton talks about ways to deal with the sheer size of the event. And Just Collect is purchasing a stunning autograph collection, including signatures from Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner that you can get a first look at!
