One thing he said in the article, was one of my worries with baseball cards.
Rendell also provides some caveats. Pop memorabilia “may be interesting to the generation buying it but will it be interesting to generations down the line?” he cautions. “Baby boomers growing up in ‘50s and ‘60s now have disposable income and may buy things having to do with old childhood idols, but is it a long-term investment?”
Maybe we've transcended that problem since we are, in many cases, collecting players we've never actually seen play, but I used to worry the 50's and 60's cards might fall into this category.
