Recorded live at The National and brought to you by eBay, this episode of Cards in Hand features Katelyn (@coldlunchcards) sharing the centerpiece of her collection: the 2014 Allen & Ginter Anthony Bourdain Red Ink Autograph /10 PSA 10.

Katelyn talks about her connection to Bourdain, how watching Parts Unknown with her dad as a teenager shaped her worldview, and the winding path that led her to this card.

We cover why collecting pop culture icons feels different from sports, the unique appeal of Allen & Ginter, and the lessons learned from chasing a true grail.

A powerful story of passion, meaning, and collecting beyond the box score.

A special thank you to eBay for sponsoring Cards in Hand. The biggest and best marketplace to buy your next favorite trading card.
