We’re Buying Baseball Cards & Memorabilia
Selling your baseball card collection can be difficult for any collector. Whether you need money for financial reasons (a wedding, a down payment on a car or house) or if your heart just isn’t in it anymore, it can be a tough decision.
That’s why Mark Rubin of American Legends wants to make things simple for you. Since 1978, Mark has built a reputation of fairness, integrity and honesty. As someone who was a collector once himself, he understands how difficult it can be to part with your prized possessions.
Mark has over 40 years of experience buying deals of all sizes, from $200 to $250,000+ collections. If you have items to sell that are on our current baseball buying list, Mark will evaluate your items and give you a fair offer immediately.
If you are interested in selling, PLEASE CONTACT Mark Rubin at 914-725-2225 or via email at mark@amerlegends.com. A quick phone call is all it takes to get started or fill out the form in the sidebar.
Some of Mark’s prized deals in the past decade include:
The Tallahassee Collection – this $200,000 collection was amassed between 1966 and 1990. Highlights include tons of Topps unopened wax packs and boxes from 1954 to 1974, Topps baseball sets and test issues from the early 1960s on up, a near run of Topps football sets, the first Topps basketball and hockey sets, a Mars Attacks set, rare non-sport boxes and original Topps art, proofs and uncut sheets.
The Northern Westchester Find – thousands of high grade single superstar cards from the early 1900s to the 1970s including a Fatima Shoeless Joe Jackson, 1948 Leaf Joe DiMaggio PSA 7, and dozens of high grade Mickey Mantle cards.
The Turkey Red Cabinet Deal – almost 40 different mid grade T3 Turkey Red cards including Cy Young, Johnny Evers and Mordecai Brown.
1933 Goudey Set – spectacular set averaging in Ex to ExMt condition including ExMt Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig.
The Full Topps Run Collection – this deal contained all the Topps baseball sets from the 1951 Topps Red Backs to the 1994 Topps set including the 1952 Topps with a PSA 7 Mickey Mantle rookie.
The Southern Westchester Find – nearly two million cards accumulated over the course of the past 40 years including over 5,000 superstar cards from 1909 to 1973.
The 2008 Find – a run of 1956 to 1980 Topps sets, plus a complete collection of Mets cards.
The 2011 Supreme 19th Century Find – almost a thousand pre-World War One cards including over two hundred N72 Old Judge cards, Allen and Ginter, Goodwin Champions, Buchner Gold Coin, T204 Ramly, Mayo, Kimball as well as a ton of T205 and T206. The collection also contained five single signed Babe Ruth baseball and a trove of Goudey, Play Ball and Diamond Stars cards.
The 2016 Mantle Extravaganza Find – featuring every regular issue Topps and Bowman Mantle including two 1952 Topps Mantles, one of which was a PSA 7. This amazing collection also contained a Topps set run from 1952 to 1956 with a spectacular 1952 Topps Frank Campos Black Star Variation in PSA 8.
The 2020 Top of the Shelving Find – nestled safely on the top shelf in a dusty warehouse filled with junk wax was this absolute gem. This a gorgeous unopened 1971 Topps Football Cello Box. The top row of packs in the box included Hall of Famers Johnny Unitas, Dick Butkus, Larry Csonka and Fran Tarkenton. We purchased the box along with almost 200 unopened cases of assorted baseball, football, basketball, hockey and non-sport cards.
All of these were five and six-figure deals, but smaller deals are always welcome!
