You're arguing that our behaviour would have been different had we known about values. Maybe so. But that's beside the point I was making.

You missed my point. YOU may not have known cards could have value, but you aren't representative of every kid. Your experience does not prove there weren't kids who cared about the value of their cards in the 50s. It was certainly a smaller market than today. But that's because the world was a smaller place. Not because the market didn't exist.
