Hall of Fame Collectibles

Uncle Mike's Mesa sports-memorabilia vault — autographed jerseys, custom framing, plus a steady stash of Pokemon singles and graded slabs.

Hall of Fame Collectibles sits in the Lindsay Marketplace plaza off Broadway and Lindsay, and it has been a clubhouse for east-Valley collectors for years. Owner Mike — known to regulars as Uncle Mike — runs the floor himself, which is why most visits turn into a twenty-minute conversation about a Reggie Jackson auto or the latest Pokemon pull.

The footprint leans heavily toward sports memorabilia: glass cases of signed baseballs, Diamondbacks helmets, framed jerseys for every Arizona team you can name, and a back wall dedicated to custom framing — Mike's framing work is genuinely the differentiator here, and the shop will take in your own jersey or photo and build a museum-grade display.

On the trading-card side, the case rotates between sealed Pokemon, vintage Topps, and a respectable run of PSA-slabbed singles. It is not the deepest Pokemon cards Mesa store on the strip, but pricing on slabs is fair and Mike is happy to talk grading.

Hours are short — Wednesday through Saturday only — so plan around them. Best window is Saturday morning when foot traffic picks up and Mike usually has fresh inventory out. The shop also takes consignments and appraisals, which is rare for a Mesa card shop and worth knowing if you've inherited a collection.
