Is Restoration the Cure for Stale Vintage? | The Hangover Ep 9
Description
This week on The Hangover, Jeremy Lee, Joe Poirot and David Chase tackle one of the most uncomfortable questions in the hobby...
Has vintage collecting gone stale?
What started as another discussion about the restored T206 Honus Wagner quickly turned into something much bigger. If collectors already own the cards they've chased for decades, where do they go next? Is restoration part of the future? Are Franken-cards art... or sacrilege? Could collectors actually embrace restored grails? And why are so many longtime vintage collectors suddenly exploring modern, memorabilia and entirely new collecting lanes?
This is one of the most thought-provoking conversations we've had, and we fully expect some disagreement.
Let us know where you stand in the comments.
Sports Cards Live returns this Saturday on Hobby Palooza, streaming on both the Sports Cards Live and 4Collectors YouTube channels, featuring Al Crisafulli of Love of the Game Auctions to continue the discussion surrounding the restored T206 Honus Wagner.
