PaulIt is an outstanding article. I was a little surprised by the estimate that there are only about 70-100 "sets" of M101-4, including all backs combined (and even less of M101-5). Does that mean that each player in M101-4, taking all backs into account, is about as scarce as a T206 Wagner?
That actually reminds me of a second questions. Why did Burdick have such a hard time documenting and ultimately acquiring a T206 Wagner? If I remember correctly, for many years he was not convinced of its existence. And he acquired the card only a few years before he donated his collection. But he had so many other cards that were so much rarer than the Wagner. Why could he find these, but not Wagner?
