  Sports Cards were among the earliest, and remain one of the most popular, forms of collectibles. They typically consist of a picture of a player on one side, with statistics or other information on the reverse. The first stage in the development of sports cards is essentially the story of baseball cards, since baseball was the first sport to become widely professionalized. Baseball cards remain the most widely collected form of sports card, although football, basketball, and hockey cards are also widely collected. |
