Life-long collector Tyler Schmitt joins today's Gordy Bonker Show to share why he collects, what he collects and how Pokemon cards are exploding in popularity. Tyler works for Gary Vaynerchuk aka Gary Vee as the VP of Core Relationships and hosts Card Talk, covering all things cards and collectibles. He shares all the details on how and what he collects for memories, from a Phantom of the Opera ticket to a random rock. He also collects First Edition Pokemon cards.
Why does Tyler think Pokemon card popularity is getting so big? It may have something to do with how easy it now is to buy, sell and trade cards.
Plus, the 1909 Ty Cobb Green Portrait is Gordy's Card of the Week, which is an awesome vintage card.
