DICK`S Sporting Goods was founded in 1948 when an 18 year-old Dick Stack was working at an Army surplus store in Binghamton, New York. An avid fisherman, Dick was approached by the store owner to come up with a list of products needed to get into the fishing tackle business. After Dick presented his suggestions, the owner told him he was a dumb kid and had no idea what he was doing. Dick was upset and promptly quit. He went to his grandmother`s house where he spent a lot of time as a kid and told her what had happened. Dick`s grandmother asked how much it would cost to build the store himself. Dick said it would cost $300. His grandmother then went to the cookie jar where she kept her life savings and gave him $300 and told him “do it yourself.” Dick used that money and his relentless work-ethic to open a bait-and-tackle shop in Binghamton. By 1958, he expanded his product line to include much of what you`ll find at DICK`S Sporting Goods today. Ed Stack, Dick`s son, is the current CEO and Chairman of DICK`S Sporting Goods. He and his siblings bought the store from their father and are responsible for taking two stores and growing the chain to over 500 stores. Dick`s family continues to offer the finest quality products at competitive prices, backed by the best service anywhere. Like you, we have a real passion for sports. Dick`s Sporting Goods, Inc. is an authentic full-line sporting goods retailer offering a broad assortment of brand name sporting goods equipment, apparel and footwear in a specialty store environment. The Company owns and operates Golf Galaxy, LLC, a golf specialty retailer and eCommerce websites and catalog operations for both Dick`s Sporting Goods and Golf Galaxy.
Beckett Media has been the voice of the collectibles industry from the time Dr. James Beckett published his first Sport Americana Baseball Card Price Guide book in 1979 to the launch of the first issue of Beckett Baseball magazine five years later. In the 30 years since that rather simplistic first issue of Beckett Baseball, the magazine – and the company itself – has grown in significant proportions, similar to the very field it covers. Under the guidance of Dr. Beckett, the company mastered the print medium, expanded Price Guide titles to other sports and other genres, introduced web commerce as a viable means of trade and instituted Grading as an important segment of the company portfolio. Now, on the 30th Anniversary of that first magazine launch, Beckett Media stands poised to continue the foundation first laid down by Dr. Beckett – one of integrity, commitment and accuracy. In doing so, Beckett Media will proudly move the Beckett brand forward through an exciting future, all the while continuing to serve its current customers and attracting a new generation of collectors. Most importantly, Beckett Media will maintain the trust and excellence the company was built upon.
