I realize this has a lot to do with what people view as tough/scarce/rare, but I disagree with this statement.
Our own cyseymour did an analysis back in 2011 of the number of combined graded examples (PSA and SGC) of the OJ HOFers.
At that time, he found that the total graded examples ranged from a low of 19 examples (W. Robinson) to a high of 113 (Ward). However, 15 out of the 27 (as of 2011) had less than 50 combined graded examples per player.
Of course I know that OJs are known to have a larger-than-normal ungraded population with large collections held by old-school collectors.
But the graded numbers certainly don't reveal easy cards...especially for the tougher 15 HOFers.
