About PostWarCards Wire

PostWarCards Wire is a real-time sports card intelligence platform built to help collectors follow a hobby that moves across hundreds of websites, newsletters, videos, podcasts, auction houses, marketplaces, and social channels.

One place to follow the hobby

The Wire collects and organizes publicly available headlines and metadata from approved hobby sources into a chronological feed. Its publications cover hobby blogs, newsletters, company and industry updates, collector media, YouTube, podcasts, auctions, marketplace activity, and more.

The goal is not to replace the original publishers and creators. Every item directs readers back to the source so good work is easier to discover.

Part of the PostWarCards project

PostWarCards Wire is published by PostWarCards, an independent sports-collectibles media project.

PostWarCards.com is home to my original research, hobby history, archives, auction analysis, unopened-market coverage, and writing about cards, memorabilia, manufacturers, collectors, and the people and companies that shaped the hobby.

The two sites serve different but connected purposes: PostWarCards documents and interprets the hobby, while PostWarCards Wire helps collectors follow it as it happens.

Publications and projects

Collector's Pulse and AI

Collector's Pulse uses AI as an editorial-assistance tool to analyze eligible Wire content and produce a daily overview of the stories, themes, and market activity shaping the hobby.

The underlying reporting, research, photography, video, and creative work remain with the original publishers linked throughout the Wire. AI helps organize and synthesize the day's coverage; it does not replace the sources behind it.

Original research and editorial approach

Curation is only one part of PostWarCards. I also conduct and publish original research using hobby publications, auction catalogs, advertisements, photographs, company records, newspaper archives, and other primary and secondary sources.

My goal is to connect present-day hobby news with the history behind it, and to preserve useful information that might otherwise disappear.

PostWarCards is independently operated. Editorial selections, Collector's Pulse coverage, source inclusion, and original research are not sold to advertisers.
