Three Trips, One Grail: Jonah’s Journey for the Josh Gibson with Jonah (@jd9cards)

What would it take for you to leave the country to get a card? For Jonah (@jd9cards), the answer was three trips to Puerto Rico and years of research for a card most collectors will never see in person: the Josh Gibson from the 1950–51 Toleteros set. At 25, Jonah isn’t your typical vintage collector. He’s building a collection rooted in history, rarity, and significance—tracking down Negro League legends, studying card photography, and connecting with sellers who want their stories carried forward. This episode is about more than a transaction. It’s about patience, trust, and collecting with purpose. You’ll walk away thinking differently about what matters in your collection.
