Tim Banazek has purchased what may be the largest private collection of sports cards in history, estimated at 20 million items. The collection includes autographed memorabilia from baseball legends like Willie Mays and Stan Musial, and was acquired from a private seller who spent over 50 years curating it. The collection was previously unknown and lacked a public profile, raising questions about its total value and future potential for exhibitions or sales.
