1991 Skybox “Stay In School” Cards

In honor of Teacher Appreciation Week, here are a few random school-themed cards. Remember these? From 1991 Skybox NBA, Upper Deck also participated in the “Stay In School” campaign at the same time. Packed chock-full of 1990’s design – teal! purple! swooshes! stars! – the set was part of a larger ‘Stay in School’ campaign through the NBA. Ah, 1990’s nostalgia at it’s finest.

New Custom slabs coming to heavy trading cards!

The design and exact logistics are still in the planning phase, but we are excited to announce that Heavy Trading Cards will soon have an option to purchase custom slabs! Take a look at the prototype and let us know your thoughts! Naturally, actual grading services will not be offered, so the label design will not reflect a numeric grade, BUT we are thinking outside the box and an opportunity […]

Isaac Newton Rookie Card, and Other Scientist Trading Cards

I like science and stuff. So I collect scientist trading cards. Modern alt-cards have been a god-send for science buff trading card collectors like myself. Gas Trading Cards, Heavy Trading Cards and others have put out a ton of amazing and relevant cards of historical and modern scientists – Nikola Tesla, Richard Feynman, Kevin Knuth, John Mather, and more. Combine that with all sorts of non-sports cards put out by […]

Back To The Future themed trading card collection

This is just a small sampling of my trading card collection featuring the greatest trilogy in American Cinema History: Back To The Future. There have been only a handful of official/licensed Back To The Future cards – mostly produced in conjunction with the release of the 2nd and 3rd movies. In 1989, Topps released Back To The Future II, a full set of 88 (88 mph, get it?) cards plus […]

Andre The Giant WWF Rookie Card

While not considered the TRUE Andre The Giant rookie card, this one is the sticker companion to his first WWF rookie card! 1987 Topps Wrestling Stars, Andre The Giant! (yes, this one is the sticker insert) I was actually never really into wrestling as a kid in the ’80s and ’90s, but as I’ve grown to appreciate nostalgia from that era so much, this card ended up being a must-have. […]

BOZ x Heavy BOZified Michael J. Fox

@blenderofzombie has been such a supporter of all things #cardart, customs and a huge Heavy Trading Cards collector! He whipped up this BOZified Michael J. Fox and sent it along my way to go with my Heavy MJF rainbow. What a beaut! Go check out BlenderOfZombie (Chris) on Instagram. His prolific 1/1 handmade card art is a staple in the hobby. P.S. Michael J. Fox Heavy cards are still available.

Wonder Monds – Dad Edition

Since my Wonderful Terrific Monds III supercollection is at a complete stalemate, I’ve decided I must expand the Monds PC. Copped this beaut of the original: Wonder Monds Sr., who played DB for the Nebraska Cornhuskers as a two-year starter and three-year letterman. Drafted 4th round by the Pittsburgh Steelers, signed with Toronto of the CFL. #WonderMonds #NebraskaFootball #WonderfulMondsCollector
