The number of people collecting will not be what it is today, and we are not likely to see the crazy runaway prices we've seen in the past. It's certainly possible it will be a healthy hobby, and that there will be well-heeled collectors ready to sink some money into it.
But I don't think it will be anything like what we've experienced in our generation. Things change, that's just a fact.
