Minor League Card Dealers
I have been collecting minor league cards for over seven years. In this
time I have found several dealers to be very helpful with finding
minor league team sets. These dealers usually do not deal in single cards,
they only sell complete sets, so please have some
consideration and don't bother them asking for a single player from
a minor league set.
The PHPA is a great source for AHL, IHL, and ECHL cards from the
past few seasons. Since they are the players' union, they get ahold
of many of the sets that simply can't be bought elsewhere.
Charlie is a longtime card dealer who is very reputable. He
has been in business for over 15 years and has a good selection of
minor league sets, including some ProCards and plenty of Springfield
Indians.
John is from St. John's, Newfoundland, and can always dig up
sets of the Maple Leafs. But his selection doesn't stop there, he has
many minor league and junior sets, including ProCards.
The Sports Zone has a good selection of Junior and minor league
sets available for sale, and they are always running eBay auctions
on those types of sets as well.
If you're looking for British hockey cards, you'll want to contact Ian Green at Armchair
Sports. Based in England, his company has produced several sets for the British
Hockey League. You'll find that many US minor pro players have spent time playing in England,
so they appear in these sets. Ian is willing to sell single cards if he has
them available. He is also the European distributor for card sets offered
by the PHPA -- in other words, he is a good source if you're in Europe
trying to get ahold of US Minor Pro sets.
If you know of a good source for minor league or junior card sets,
drop me a line!
