The National Sports Collectors Convention (NSCC) is ready to kick off its 44th anniversary with a bang by hosting a special charity auction at the 2024 convention. Bringing together sports enthusiasts and collectors, this auction will not only offer exclusive memorabilia items but also support three Cleveland area charities in their noble missions.
This charity auction, managed by Pristine Auction, is slated to take place from July 20 to July 27, 2024. It will feature an impressive lineup of 44 unique items, including two exquisite paintings by renowned sports artists valued between $10,000 and $15,000 each. Participants can engage in the auction through the provided link, with select items also being showcased at the convention for in-person viewing.
The array of items up for grabs in this charity auction is nothing short of extraordinary. From paintings and signed sports memorabilia to limited-edition collectibles, there is something for every sports fan and collector. Notable highlights include original paintings like the “Cleveland Collage” and the “LeBron James Portrait,” along with signed items from iconic figures like Mickey Mantle, LeBron James, and Roberto Clemente.
The auction boasts an extensive collection of sports memorabilia, ranging from vintage baseball cards to modern-day sports gear. Collectors will find gems like the 1955 Bowman Mantle card, 1980 Topps Bird/Magic rookie card, and memorabilia signed by contemporary stars like Conor McGregor and Usain Bolt. With such a diverse range of items, the auction promises an exciting opportunity for collectors to acquire pieces that celebrate the rich history and essence of sports.
Furthermore, the charity auction holds special significance as it aims to support three Cleveland area charities: The Greater Cleveland Food Bank, Inc., The City Mission, and additional local organizations. These charities work tirelessly to address crucial issues like hunger and homelessness in the community, providing essential resources and support to those in need.
The Greater Cleveland Food Bank, Inc., focuses on ensuring access to nutritious food for individuals in the Cleveland area. By bridging the meal gap and offering educational resources, they empower individuals to thrive despite facing hunger-related challenges. Similarly, The City Mission plays a vital role in assisting men, women, and children in crisis to overcome homelessness, providing tailored programs to help them build stable and independent futures.
The NSCC expresses its gratitude to all participants and supporters who contribute to this charitable cause.
