The Monster Number thread seems to indicate the “set” hypothesis is valid and many collectors are buying cards of strangers they’ve never heard of nor would they pay 50 cents to see them play in a game.

I was not an acid-eating free-loving hippie in the 60s, but I lived with some. The current status of their card collections is unknown. Maybe we need a thread for them to chime in. I’m sure they have heard of the internet, but they may not be able to find it.
