Million-Dollar Mickey Mantles

In this episode of the Bangers Only Podcast, I sit down with Gordy Bonker, the man behind Bonkers Cards, to better understand the vintage sports cards industry.

We’re talking million-dollar Mickey Mantles, Honus Wagners worth more than some beachfront homes, and much more.

Gordy shares why vintage cards like the 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle and the T206 Honus Wagner may serve as alternative investments in your portfolio.

If you’re a collector, an investor, or just love a good story about following your passion, this episode’s for you.
