Default Disjointed supply vs. demand story

From a supply standpoint, the Coupons are ridiculously difficult - even the type 2's. A quick scan of the PSA and SGC pop reports:

Christy Mathewson is the highest pop card in the SGC pop report at 53 graded examples, 23 of those graded under 2. There are many with single digit and very low double digit pop's

On the PSA side Cobb is the most graded with 45 examples 25 of them graded under 2

The Type 1 and 3's are almost all single digit populations.

I'm not suggesting these are all there are as I am sure there are a bunch of raw ones out there, but use the data as a point of comparison to population relative to T206.

Where the T213's have historically suffered is on the demand side. Without getting back into the "are they T206's" debate, I am perplexed whether they are or are not, that they do not get more price respect in the market place - some of these cards are INCREDIBLY hard to find - forget about completing a set!

I personally find the glossy sheen that makes the colors pop on the Type 2's to make them considerably more visually attractive than T206's.
