Fans of trading cards and sports memorabilia now have a new place for deals off I-35 in Schertz.

In a nutshell

Warehouse Cards, located at 21586 I-35 N. frontage road, Ste. 105, opened Aug. 9. The shop is locally owned by Walter Thames, who told Community Impact that he is turning his collection hobby into a business.

"I just started getting a lot of stuff, and I'm like, okay, 'What am I gonna do here? I don't have room for all this stuff, so I need to put it in storage or I can open up a little shop,' so this is kind of a cross between both," Thames said.

Thames has a collection of sports cards and memorabilia, including a grouping of signed baseballs from members of Major League Baseball's 500 home run club such as Mike Schmidt and Sammy Sosa. The store also has collectibles from brands like Star Wars and Marvel Comics.


Customers are also able to trade or sell merchandise at the store.
