Some of the unique items and collections discovered so far include a Doctor Strange collection, classic Joe Palooka, Flintstone playsets, and others.

Carbonaro is a self-made expert pop culture collector, currently working as a buyer at Dave & Adam’s Cardworld and buying comic and pop culture collections from around the world.
