Reed Kasaoka is the head buyer of the Sports Division at Dave & Adam's. His primary responsibility is traveling all over the country, buying private collections out of people’s closets, bedrooms, attics, basements, garages, and storage units, as well as complete inventories of show dealers, shop owners, autograph dealers, and distributors. Reed comes up with some amazing finds – rarely seen unopened boxes, quality graded cards, certified autographed memorabilia, and much more.
We have tagged all of his acquisitions as a Reed Buy so you’ll know where to look first for all of his deals. Almost every item is “one-of-a-kind” – so when you see something interesting, don’t hesitate, because there are likely many other collectors who are thinking the exact same thing!
Every box contains (1) Encapsulated Hall of Famer Autograph Card!!
Each card is authenticated and encapsulated by PSA with every signature numerically graded. All cards are eligible for the PSA Set Registry and are serially numbered to 100 or less. A full checklist is printed on the bottom side of every box.
This star-packed issue contains Hall of Fame plaque postcards (both black-and-white and gold versions) as well as the ever-popular Perez-Steele postcard series. The 2012 edition will also contain beautiful Perez-Steele Celebration cards.
The autographed cards are housed in a specially designed frame that distinguishes our product from others. The 2012 edition will use a design emblematic of the 1930s art deco movement. The frame features a pair of vintage bats, gloves and baseballs with a small baseball diamond in opposing corners. The holders are color coordinated to enhance the signed postcards with cobalt blue and silver tones. The box will feature original artwork by Eric Ayers (who has done some incredible work for HA in the past).
The art depicts a Depression-era art style of a batter striking a ball with a filled grandstand as the backdrop. A short history of baseball during the 1930s and the opening of the Hall of Fame is printed on the inside cover of each box.
