Umpire cards and collectibles
Seeing more umpire cards showing up on eBay, some even autographed. Is there really an umpire market? Usually some variation on "this is the guy who called the game when [insert magical baseball moment]." Are there really collectors into the niche in a big way? Not seeing the emotional or sentimental connection to some umpire who happened to be behind the plate when babe hit his 60th home run. But, to each his own . . . .
