Beckett recently wrote an article about our company featured in the May Edition of Beckett Sports Collector’s Monthly, it can also be seen on Beckett.com. Thanks goes to Kevin Haake who wrote the article.

If one were to craft a list detailing the seven wonders of the collecting world, there is little doubt that Dave and Adam’s Card World would be in the discussion.

Located just outside of Buffalo, N.Y., Dave and Adam’s Card World hasn’t always been the card Mecca that stands so majestically today. In fact, Adam and Dave’s Hockey World started like most great American enterprises, with humble and meager beginnings.

“I first met Dave in the summer of 1988 in Rochester, N.Y.,” Adam Martin recalls. “We were by far the youngest exhibitors on the card show circuit at the time so we tended to gravitate towards one another.

In 1989 Pierre Turgeon, Dave Andreychuk, Daren Puppa and other Buffalo Sabres were getting hot, but back then there were no easy ways to acquire large volumes of Rookie Cards, so I suggested to Dave that we start running classified ads in select trade publications.”

“Of course, Dave was on board, but there was one problem, what would we call the business? Since I was still living at home, and it was my phone number that was in the ad, I suggested that we call the business Adam and Dave’s Hockey World. I even had my mom trained to answer the phone so that when I wasn’t there, she would tell the customers that Dave and I were off breaking cases of 1979-80 vending.”

So how did Adam and Dave’s Hockey World end up as Dave and Adam’s Card World?

“One day, Dave came to me and said ‘you know, I think that I’d like to run my phone number in the ads too.’ ” Martin said. “I told him that we couldn’t run two phone numbers because it might be confusing to our customers. At the time, we were also aggressively buying Jim Kelly rookies and other Buffalo Bills, so Adam and Dave’s Hockey World didn’t truly represent the full scope of our growing business. So we compromised, I got to keep my number running in the classified ads but the business name would change to Dave and Adam’s Card World … 19 years later, I guess you can say it worked out OK.” Continue reading ‘Dave and Adam’s Card World Featured in Beckett’
