Sports Illustrated Blog #133 on our way to #200 – Another “Diamond In the Rough”
| Welcome to my Sports Illustrated/TIME magazine blog – Your collector’s guide to the latest hobby updates and insight into what’s trending now. Graded magazines are more than just taking off – they are the next big thing. For years, I’ve been a voice in the wilderness crying out about this moment, and now, it’s finally here. Yes, it’s still a tough SI market but there is soooooo…… much more. Today’s blog is a head’s up regarding one more pub that we will soon be talking more about as a “Diamond in the Rough”. That pub is “BASEBALL” Magazine with several publishers including Complete Sports, Whitestone, Maco, Dell, Athlon and others. Every so often one of these pubs hit the jackpot with regard to esthetics, athlete, first cover, and collector interest. In addition to this magazine, you have single issues from others publishers. Take a look for yourself and don’t be swayed by others that don’t know any more than you about future trends. A lot of this stuff is still waiting to be discovered. You might just as well be the first. Write me with your discoveries or keep them secret. Either way, the “Diamonds in the Rough” are coming. Next time we’re going to move on to “What’s up with the 9.9’s”? As always, thanks for your support. |
