Always trying to expand my odd collection, and help raise other collectors' awareness of non-US baseball cards, I signed up for a MercadoLibre.com (Mexico's eBay) account yesterday to try and buy some Mexican League cards. So far, my searches have turned up card/sticker/stamp sets from these countries:
Venezuela
Mexico
Japan
Korea
Taiwan
Australia
Nicaragua
Cuba
Puerto Rico
Dominican Republic
Cuba
The Netherlands
The only countries that seem to be currently producing cards are:
Japan
Venezuela
Taiwan
Korea is surprisingly poorly represented in the hobby, despite having one of the better established pro baseball leagues. They've only had a couple of league-wide pack-issued sets, and none since 2000.
As I find information, I'm adding it to the SCF Inventory Manager. So far I've managed to find checklists for sets from Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Venezuela, and very incomplete information for Mexico. Does anyone know of any other countries that are currently producing baseball cards?
