Issue with memorabilia is the pool of willing buyers is much smaller than cards. You could have the coolest piece of memorabilia and there might be 5-10 people in the world who would ever consider spending $50,000 to buy it. Because of population reports, VCP, etc., cards are more easily monetized.
There was a breathtaking Christy Mathewson auction on Hunt last year. Truly mind boggling stuff. At the live auction it was clear there were only a relative handful of active bidders when stuff hit the big bucks. The old adage is you only need 2 active bidders to go nuts, but once one of those guys has one of them, the auction next time around might look very different.
