I think a lot of it is that they missed key sets. DiMaggio’s career fell right between the Goudeys and 1952 Topps. And Williams missed 1952 Topps and a couple of the other 50s Topps sets. So they don’t have what would have been headline cards in ‘52 Topps. And as cool as some of the ‘40s and late ‘30s issues are to us, they don’t have the mass appeal of ‘52 Topps.
