the best and rarest will be ok as investments
i do collect and consider what I buy to be investments. I only buy Cards that are timeless and will be known 100 years from now. That means Pre 1900 and pre war. I think Cobb, Ruth, Mantle, DiMaggio, Wagner will be enduring figures always popular with adult collectors. While kids today are not huge fans I think baseball will remain part of Americana and will be collectible. I am assuming they will keep up with inflation plus some upside depending on the economy.
Adult rich folks will want that high grade Cobb regardless of their affection for modern baseball. i no longer watch games anymore but love the history of the game and collect from the era I never was part of seeing personally.
