Today's guests include: Mike James, an artist whose work many collectors are probably familiar with without even realizing it. He’s created pieces used in trading card products for manufacturers such as Topps, In The Game, Cryptzoic, and Leaf. More recently, James’ art was featured in 2018 Topps Museum Collection and in the brand new 2018 Topps Big League Baseball. Check out his interview and get a new perspective on trading cards from the perspective of a freelance artist! Brad Johnson, owner of the 2011 Mike Trout Bowman Chrome Superfractor #d 1/1 and graded PSA 10. I chat with Brad about the card including how he acquired it, what he plans to do with it, and more!
