Perhaps you haven't been paying attention to rare and significant Ruth, Cobb, Jackson, etc. cards. They've been doing quite well, and virtually none of the buyers of their cards were there to see them play. Baseball and its history are truly Americana at its finest, and I believe the sport itself is so deep in its tradition that this isn't going to change any time soon, certainly not before all of us are long gone.
Good luck in your collecting,
