Custom printed trading cards are rising in popularity. Whether it's commemorating a special event, showcasing artwork, or celebrating a beloved hobby, trading cards offer a unique way to create a special collecting experience.
With the meteoric rise (and fall) of NFT’s in years past, collectors still yearn for physical product. (or at least digital items backed by tangible items.) All the better to leverage the power of print to create a special collectable!
The Appeal of Custom-Made Trading Cards
Trading cards have long been a beloved pastime for enthusiasts of all ages. From the early days of baseball cards from the late 1800’s to role-playing gaming cards depicting iconic fantasy characters, these little pieces of high-quality printed paper hold immense sentimental value for collectors.
And if you're lucky it will hold its value become a keepsake to pass down through generations.
Today, there are tons of print-on-demand tools to allow hobbyists to “self-publish” their own ideas for games and other sorts of licenses. Since trading cards don’t come with expensive up-front cost and lead times (when compared to board games and video games), it’s often a go-to for individuals, and brands, to get a fun idea quickly off the ground.
The Thrill of The Unknown: The Role of Custom Printed Card Wrappers
There is something ceremonial about unwrapping a pack of trading cards. The hopes of pulling a rare card or getting the last player on your checklist brings a thrill for collectors. In many cases many collectors opt not to open the packs at all. Sometimes the joy is not knowing what’s inside…wondering what could be.
No matter the choice, a trading card wouldn’t have the mystique without a proper wrapper. That’s where Wrap’N’Roll comes in.
