Look, every few years someone predicts that cards will end. Hasn't happened in the 50+ years I've been collecting.

Many thanks, Adam, for sharing that gem of a quote from Mr. Burdick.
Right on. Wasn't it just last year that rather young, very successful, entrepreneur spent a tad over $5,000,000 for a gorgeous 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle in PSA 9 MINT? When interviewed about it, he said he had wanted this card for many years. He got what he wanted, and he loved what he got.
