Gwynn was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame alongside Cal Ripken, Jr. on July 29, 2007. Both were elected in their first year of eligibility.

This changed in the following year's election, when Goose Gossage, Tony's teammate from 1984 to 1987, was elected. Another of Gwynn's teammates, Rickey Henderson was elected to the hall in 2009.
Elected by baseball writers were second baseman Roberto Alomar and pitcher Bert Blyleven. Longtime general manager Pat Gillick was selected by a special panel. Induction ceremonies will be in July 2011.

It has been no secret that Henderson would be elected into the Hall of Fame some day.

The current high demand will then lower again to normal levels. The value will stay high if more collectors enter the market in the future, and his memorabilia is less available.
