Touché. Once again, good point! For some reason I forgot the reason why I even knew anything about Pre-war players and it was because of SP Legendary Cuts. Bought so many boxes that I finally learned to recognize and tell you the significance of most Hall of Famers. But I will add the only reason I was privileged enough to buy these cards was because my grandpa funded my addiction...
But yes, point taken. The only reason I bought the new stuff when I was young was because it was the only way I could get a Mickey Mantle for under $20.
