There was similar hype in '01 for Ichiro and Pujols. I saw people at my local shop who probably never considered the hobby, trying to pull an Ichiro rookie.

If anyone noticed a boost in vintage cards around '01-'02, it was probably due in some part to that. If so, then maybe it'll happen again. However, I feel that pre-war cards are expensive enough so I don't know what kind of boost you want.
