Things are constantly in and out of fashion. Outdated pulps came back into vogue in the '70's, leading to a resurgence or rediscovery for guys like Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard.

The nice thing about e-books is that once they exist, they do not have to go out of print.

Given enough time, guys like Frank Yerby will make it to e-books.
