It happens to many things. Jefferson Burdick, the American Grandfather of Collecting, hated that his beloved cards had any value at all. He did the best he could to never equate them to a monetary value (he always kept his valuations extremely low for that reason). Just as cards aren't as much a kid's hobby anymore so aren't many autographs.
