A lot of us who collect this stuff weren't alive at the time, yet we appreciate it. While the numbers may not be as strong down the line, it's guaranteed that some currently younger fans will discover the same things we did and collect in the same fashion. Again, perhaps not as many, but thankfully not zero.
Either way, now is not the time to sell this kind of stuff, unless it's signed tougher cards, of course. I'd rather be surprised by a resurgence or go down with the ship if it never arrives. Not giving away my Spooners, Bessents or Hamrics, thanks very much.

Currently there are 8 signed 3x5's of Bert Hameric up on ebay, easily the most I have seen in many years. I couldn't even find one for a few years, and then stumbled upon one pretty cheap because the listing had his name spelled wrong. LOL
