The reason his cards are undervalued, comparatively, is market. Mays and Mantle played in New York, and that's where their legends were born. The Giants did move, but Mays was already a star. Clemente played in a smaller market, obviously, but he was the first real Latin superstar.

Aaron played in Milwaukee, and then Atlanta, which is not a great sports town, comparatively. If Aaron had played in New York, his cards would be worth a lot more. I think his cards will go up in value. I know I'm going to grab a really nice '54 Topps Aaron asap.
