Part of the allure for me is the difficulty in obtaining certain cards, in any condition. Another part of the allure is that baseball was/is my favorite sport while growing up ...and still today...though I rarely follow major league baseball currently. The 3rd part, and maybe (dare I say) just as important, is the fact that the little masterpieces of art have gone up in value. It's like a tri-facta in that respect. The other part of collecting that is great fun is the camaraderie involved. I have met hundreds of really great people in the hobby and, with this board, it seems like I meet new folks every week. With all of that going for it, it's no wonder cards can be thought of as an investment.....regards
