Did Topps Really Break The News That LeBron Signed With The Sixers?; Will That First LeBron Topps Card As A 76er Be Worth Much In The Future (Or Any Card Of Star Athlete In First Year With New Team)?
Season 6, Episode 401
Show notes
EPISODE 401 - Clark hosts another solo Friday video episode to thank the listeners again for tuning in each week as the guys celebrated 400 episodes. They already did a podcast T-shirt giveaway and have a couple more for those coming to the Sport Card Expo in the Greater Toronto Area from Nov. 5 to 8.
The rest of the show, Clark talks about the recent podcast episode on Pablo Torre Finds Out on LeBron James and his partnership with Fanatics. While most of the conversation on that pod was about how he has regular access to go to games from NYC where LeBron lives to Philadelphia on a private helicopter, Clark focuses on the fact that Topps first broke the news of LeBron signing for the 76ers.
And how they did so by also selling the Topps Now card commemorating the moment. Will having athletes be partners and investors with companies like Fanatics be good for the hobby? Can we expect more cool fan experiences as a result? Do other card companies have a chance to compete?
