Jay,
My concern is not about population reports, but why so many survived in so good of shape. Now, I see on the rules for the "game" it says copyright 1913. I also have to wonder if the cards and the rules are from one and the same game. I am not an expert on games. My worry is about the print on the back, the paper and the high number of high quality cards from the set. Admittedly, the ones you have in the picture exhibit some wear, but the ones generally offered are in high quality. This doesn't usually happen with 102 year old cards.
