Being on the front lines I vehemently disagree. People overestimate grading's reach into the old-time hobby.
In our pre war auction we grade hundreds of cards each auction, yes a lot aren't anything to write home about, but there's also things like the PSA 7 Cracker Jacks from the last auction.
I have a consignor who has complete raw sets of T201, T202, T205 and T206 and from what I've seen we're looking at an average grade of EX.
There is TONS of nice pre war out there still to be graded. As the boomer generation divests and/or passes I think you'll be stunned at the cards that go to be graded for the first time.
