MEET THE TEAM

MARY ANTAL, D.MIN

Founder

A theologian, teacher, and avid collector, Mary is passionate about learning, serving others, and building meaningful connections through the hobby. As a devoted Chicago sports fan, she is always open to trade for her beloved Cubs and Bears. Her love for trading cards, combined with her commitment to faith, family, and community, inspired the creation of a welcoming space where collectors of all ages can enjoy the hobby together.

JOEY ANTAL

Right-Hand Man, Trade Evaluator, Husband, and Dad Joke Champion of the World

Joey’s claim to fame is his re-telling of the 2003 “Steve Bartman” Game at Wrigley Field. If you know, you know. His favorite Pokémon is Pikachu, and his helping hand in carrying all of the heavy equipment keeps the team together. When he's not helping grow the business and connecting with fellow collectors, he enjoys spending time with his family and following the Cubs throughout the season. His love for community, sports, and the hobby helps create the welcoming, family-focused atmosphere that defines the business.

THE TRIO

The Best Helpers

Our team wouldn’t be complete without the kiddos behind it all. Meet Gideon, Averi, and Henry! This energetic trio brings the life to the collection party. Whether they’re helping sort cards, tagging along to card shows, celebrating big pulls, or keeping everyone on their toes, they are a big part of what makes this business special. Their excitement, curiosity, and love for the hobby remind us that collecting is about more than cards—it’s about making memories, having fun, and sharing the experience with the people you love most.
