⚾ About the Card Collecting Scene in New York

New York’s card collecting scene is unrivaled in depth and influence, with Bleecker Trading in Manhattan’s trendy West Village epitomizing the modern collecting experience. This shop combines retail space with a “social club” for trade nights and features a backyard for parties and monthly collectibles shows, creating a community hub that’s “always busy” according to store manager Mike Kowpak. The state’s collecting landscape is enhanced by iconic establishments like Alex’s MVP Cards & Comics on the Upper East Side (operating since 1988) and American Legends in Westchester County (established 1992).

New York’s significance in the hobby extends beyond retail, with significant industry players headquartered in the region, including Fanatics, Topps, Goldin Auctions, Heritage Auctions, and PSA. The state hosts prominent events like the East Coast National, organized by JP’s Sports and Rock Solid Promotions, and the Collectors Mega Show at the New York State Fairgrounds, featuring over 200 tables. New York’s collecting community benefits from its rich sports heritage and international tourism, with shop owners reporting visitors worldwide seeking cards.
