What is wrong with checks and non baseball related items? I completely agree with keeping cuts out of my collection, but some of my toughest autographs (Wilkinson, Thompson) are on non-sport postcards. Good luck finding most any 19th Century players on baseball related items. I have some beautiful letters by Tinker, Evers and others but none of them have baseball content. That being said, they are (nearly) impossible to forge.
I think, like anything, provenance is key. By collecting only baseball related items, you make it impossible to collect certain HOFers that are otherwise obtainable.
