About Us

OUR HISTORY

With over 43 consecutive years in business, Hall of Fame Baseball Cards is one of the longest running family-owned card shops in the world! But we didn't start that way. We started out of our family's garage in Arcadia, CA. back in 1981 as an officially licensed business, with direct accounts at Topps, Donruss and Fleer. We would advertise our packs, boxes and cases via local newspapers and word of mouth, slowly building relationships with collectors who would come down the driveway on weekends and shop in our garage, which was set up with shelving units much like we use today. In 1991, we opened up our first official location outside of the house on Foothill Blvd. in Arcadia where we remained for 30 more years. In May of 2021, we moved locations to Myrtle Ave. in Monrovia, joining the historic Old Town Monrovia shopping district. A perfect fit, tucked into the All-American, Foothill community. With over 43 consecutive years in business, we are one of the longest running, family-owned card shops in the world!

 

OUR GOAL

At Hall of Fame Baseball Cards, we are focused on creating a unique, family-friendly collecting experience for everyone who comes through our door. All collectors welcome!
