Collecting Trading Cards
Collecting trading cards goes all the way back to the 1800s when the Victorians began collecting "Trade Cards" which began as a clever way of advertising after the invention of color printing.
As the popularity of baseball grew, so did the interest in collecting and trading these cards. Over time, other sports and non-sports cards also gained popularity, including football, basketball, hockey, and trading cards featuring popular characters from TV shows and movies.
The emergence of collectible card games like Magic: The Gathering and Yu-Gi-Oh! further popularized the hobby. In recent years, card collecting has seen a resurgence with the rise of online marketplaces and the growing interest in rare and valuable cards.
