That thought has crossed my mind in the past, but then I realized I grew up watching Wade Boggs, Ken Griffey Jr., and Cal Ripken. I never saw Pete Rose play, or much less Ty Cobb. I don't think it matters much whether we saw them play. There will always be guys who love baseball, value history, and love to collect. The guys who collect Mike Trout today will probably do the same. Maybe you are right, but I'm guessing that most guys who spend a ton of money on cards today never witnessed a Ted Williams at bat.
