Ticket Stubs: The Hobby’s Hottest Collectible

How the pandemic and professional grading have made ticket stub collecting more popular than ever.

By Sal Barry

While trading cards may always be number one among sports memorabilia enthusiasts, ticket stub collecting has gradually heated up over the past two years. It has done so for two reasons. The COVID-19 pandemic and grading companies have both made collecting physical ticket stubs more popular than ever. However, digital ticketing may erode some of that enthusiasm – but maybe not for long.

BCW Plans a 2021 Move to a Larger Warehouse

BCW Supplies, a manufacturer of products to protect, store, and display collectibles, is moving its headquarters to a larger facility. BCW currently has two warehouses in Anderson, Indiana. The main warehouse and office is on 31st Street, and the second warehouse on North Broadway is a former supermarket. BCW has been growing steadily over the past few years, and increased product demand during the pandemic made the need for a larger warehouse a necessity. During 2021, BCW will be shifting operations from the Anderson facilities to an existing warehouse eight miles to the east. The new headquarters will be at 8984 State Road 236 in Middletown. This Middletown site was previously a Down Lite pillow factory, and the Liebhardt Woolen Mills before that. With a strong work force, Anderson has been an excellent home to BCW since the company was founded 40 years ago. The tough decision to move was based upon the perfect fit with the available Middletown facility. 

Exterior of BCW's new location

The Middletown community can expect BCW Supplies to be a good neighbor. BCW normally works a traditional business week, with a few large trucks coming and going throughout the day. BCW employs 50 members currently, and expects to grow with the larger headquarters. Job opportunities are listed on the BCW page as they become available.
