Cardboard Capital - Sports Cards are an Alternative Asset Class
I am so excited to get to share with you all my presentation I gave at the National on the rise and growth of sports cards as an alternative asset class.
I published the links to download the presentation as well as listen / watch on the newsletter yesterday, you can check out that post here:
This week’s episode on the Gordy Bonker Show - Matt Cirulnick, Founder of Eye Appeal Inc!
I had the pleasure to interview Hollywood Screenwriter and Founder of Eye Appeal Inc Matt Cirulnick at the National, and the interview is now live on the Gordy Bonker Show!
We talk about his career in Hollywood, what it was like writing and working alongside Sylvester Stallone in Rambo V, his incredible signed 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle card, the importance of eye appeal in vintage cards, and the Eye Appeal Inc. community.
I will continue to share with you guys as much information surrounding the trends emerging from the vintage sports card landscape, and I believe this interivew is incredibly insightful when it comes to how vintage collectors and investors are thinking across the industry.

Greg Morris Cards
Greg Morris Cards has been a great sponsor and partner of mine, and I am so grateful for their continued support of both the Bonkers Cards LIVE show and this newsletter.
I am always looking to buy and sell vintage graded cards — however, sometimes you guys have cards for sale that don’t always align with what I’m looking for or make the most sense for my platform. If you have raw cards, modern cards, or vintage cards that might not be the right fit for me and my show — email me at bonkerscards@gmail.com with the cards you want to sell, and I will make the personal introduction to the GM consignment team.
If you would prefer to go to GM Cards on your own — click “Consign” on their main site at gregmorriscards.com/consign-raw and select Gordy Bonker’s Cards under the referral drop-down menu.
