I guess condition conscious folks like Lionel Carter were not into it for the pure enjoyment. I bet that would be a surprise to him.

Will the real dinausor please stand up?

I started going to shows in 1979 and I can vouch for the fact that there were condition conscious collectors back then. Of course it was different from now. But condition awareness is not something new in the hobby.
