Wall of Cards Project



What is the Wall of Cards Project?
    The Wall of Cards Project is an attempt to fill the walls in my basement storage room/ office with Cardinals baseball cards. 

What type of cards can be found on The Wall?
     You will find a mix of vintage, autograph, game used, and other eye appealing cards. No player is exempt from making the wall. Many fan-favorites from throughout history as well as National Baseball Hall of Fame members and St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Fame Members are represented.

History of The Wall

     On September 28, 2014, the St. Louis Cardinals clinched the NL Central Division. That night, my youngest son and I began work on the wall. It originally looked like this:



It has grown exponentially since that time. It is now even larger than the picture posted at the top of this page. I am actively moving things out of the storage room and trading them for Cardinals baseball cards. As a result, the wall expands -- one Card at a time.

Goals

1) Fill 1 wall with Cardinals cards Completed 6/3/15
2) Expand to fill the adjacent wall  Started 6/3/15
3) Fill 1st wall with all autographed and game-used cards Started 9/28/14
4) Fill 1st wall with all autographed and game-used cards of St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Fame members Started 9/28/14
5) Fill 2nd wall with all autographed and game-used cards
6) Fill 2nd wall with all autographed and game-used cards of St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Fame members
7) Find a room with bigger walls

  1. That looks really cool.
    Wish I had a spare room that I could use to do that.

    1. Thank you, Leigh. Many of them will be going straight up on the wall. I'm excited for them to arrive. Thank you for contributing. :)
