100% agree on this... I actually think the cards with the most upside are 80's BKB rookies. I think 20 years from now people will be shocked to see how much Olajuwon, Malone, Thomas and even Pippen and Rodman rookies are going for. Perhaps my craziest prediction with any "investment" ever but I expect to sell these cards that I have acquired for well above $1,000 each and I've bought most of them over the past few years for well under $100 (most in the 8-9 area). The 86-87 Fleer set is a no-brainer IMO with nothing but upside.
As for the Jeter vs Ruth it's kind of like buying one of the FANG stocks vs an industrial megacap stock. You'd be gambling on the Jeter but investing with the Ruth. Then again, if you're just a hobby purist (which I wish all of us fell in that camp) then just buy whatever makes you happy.
