PaulI have no reason to doubt that the Paige is much tougher than the other Leaf SPs. But I'm not sure that early withdrawal is the explanation. The box Alan Rosen found had 3 Paiges. That's a low number to be sure, but it's not zero. If the card was withdrawn early, I would expect a box to have either zero Paiges (post-withdrawal) or a number equal to the other players (pre-withdrawal). The only other possibility would be that Alan Rosen's box had the extraordinary historic significance of being created during the withdrawal process, with the first few packs in the box coming from before the withdrawal, and the majority coming from after the withdrawal. I suppose that's possible, but it seems unlikely.
