If you’ve never been to the National Sports Collectors Convention, you need to start planning on how to get to the next one today. Trading card manufacturers like Upper Deck and large dealers go all out to make sure fans have a great time. There is also an incredible line-up of autograph signers visiting throughout the weekend.
Upper Deck’s booth at the National Sports Collectors Convention always seemed to have something going on and fans packed in to enjoy the experience!
For me however, I just love seeing the excitement on fan’s faces as they open up new Upper Deck packs looking to score something great. And many of the fans did! Products like 2015 Goodwin Champions, 2014-15 NHL® SP Authentic and 2014-15 NHL® Upper Deck Premier were widely broken throughout the weekend. Collectors also loved Upper Deck’s wrapper redemption promotions where they could score promotional packs of 2015 Upper Deck Prominent Cuts and case breaker promotions where they could get all sorts of other great items. Take a look at just some of the awesome pulls from the National!

This young man was thrilled (as was his father) that they were able to pull this incredible dual autograph cut card. His dad said they will likely not be reselling it, but keeping it in their collection.
