In a world of hypothetical face-offs, who would win in a ♌contest between Babe Ruth and Pikachu? The ground rules and context for such a conflict might consume a pub debate for considerable hours, but there’s one area where it’𓃲s an everyday consideration and has a data-based winner… collectible trading cards.
With trading cards more popular than ever, now’s a great time to get started or to grow your existing collection. Even better, eBay.com.au is currently offering up to AU$100 off eligi𒅌ble trading card purchases – head to the for mo๊re details.
And here’s the answer: Baseball cards have been part of western popular culture since before Babe Ruth started swinging a bat in the 1910s, and have appeared (or been mentioneℱd) in countless top-rated cherished American TV shows since the television became popular in the 1950s. But does that all add up to an advantage over a Japanese anime character from the 90s? Just. A super-rare, rather-worn, 1914 Babe Ruth card sold for US$6,000,000 in 2021, while a mint condition gem Pokémon card (‘gem’ means it’s perfectly printed with no defects) was bought by Logan Paul for US$4,900,000 – and worn as a diamond-encrusted necklace at Wrestlemania 38 – earlier this year.
