Purely for the sake of argument . . .
IF these items were such a sacred part of history, then they wouldn't even be available for purchase by the card companies.
IF it is such an important part of history, is anyone starting an organization to outbid the card companies to acquire these and protect them from this fate?
Unless I'm mistaken, the Hall of Fame will not pay to acquire and protect these pieces of history, and even they have failed in part in this respect in protecting the history entrusted to their care.
Is MLB with it's billions of $$$ buying them up to protect them from destruction?
So aside from a few here, who else considers them worthy of protection as historical treasures to the point that they are willing to put thier money where their mouth is?
[Just some related thoughts and not my personal beliefs.]
