Default one caveat

One caveat to this whole debate is the word "known" beside each of the numbers. As was pointed out, the coin hobby is more mature and DOES have mintage numbers. Not so, the pre-war card hobby. As someone who collects rare and scarce cards we better put the term "known" next to the copies known about today. How many T207 Red Crosses were there 3 yrs ago and how many are known today? (as an example)
