Agreed. But maybe there will a registry competition in the future for OJ's, who knows? I would rather own high grade cards of sets that the competition does not yet exist because they are far less expensive.

Of course, I realize that the fact that so many faded OJ's were already given high grades is an obstacle for set registry collectors. But maybe someday there will be a way of re-grading them?

Also, I think that (not faded) high-grade 19th Century cards are major condition rarities, just because they are so old. A high-grade OJ is far more rare than a high-grade T206, for instance.
