Cop Out

From IMDB - "A comedy about a veteran NYPD cop whose rare baseball card is stolen. Since it's his only hope to pay for his daughter's upcoming wedding, he recruits his partner to track down the thief, a memorabilia-obsessed gangster."

Edit -- Looks like Ryan beat me to it.

I don't have the time to cherry pick but there should be some others in this thread - you could keep a master list in the top post and see if anyone can think of any new ones?.

Dumb and Dumber. Might be a stretch since they only mention baseball cards.

Swindle is the movie on Nickelodeon. It was actually fun to watch.

There's a scene in Goodfellas where Morrie the wig guy says something about "baseball cards" but it's one of the big pan-around-the-group scenes. It took place around 1970. I always wondered about that.

In the Radioactive Man #1 episode of The Simpsons, a parody of Treasure of Sierra Madre, Milhouse gets roped into the deal even though he only wanted the "Mutton-chop Yaz" card.

The Winning Season

A fun movie based around a kid finding a Honus Wagner card in an attic and being able to go back in time and get it autographed to help his family financially. He gets to hang with Honus and whatnot.

I have the DVD. I believe it was made for television.

Not a movie but diff'rent strokes has a scene where the red haired kid is sorting late 80s Topps.

Simon birch. The pastor takes Simons shoe box of baseball cards and puts them up.

If we're going tv too, there was an episode of Family Matters when Urkel traded his Mantle RC to a singer in exchange for him to sing to Laura.
