What is it about "memorabilia" that is more appealing than cards?

The card side gets much more attention and was just wondering thoughts from us memorabilia people.

Will memorabilia(fill in the blank of whatever category you want) ever be as popular as cards??

When I was 8 or 9, I found some old, pre-war baseball bats in my grandfather's basement. I thought they were tremendous. About 30 years later, I realized that people sold pro model bats at card shows and through magazine ads, and I started accumulating more because they really are tremendous. Then I started picking up photos to go with the bats. Today, I am not collecting as actively as before, but I still love the stuff.
