Price guides just don't have a good read on the hobby as is. Even though the Standard Catalog is getting closer.....not close..to getting a feel for how the market is. The problem is, most collectors (non-vintage) are dabbling enough to realize what we figured out a long time ago.

Mr. Shiny Stuff with the xrefractometer wometer cards at table 108 even realizes that those Goudey cards or skinny tobackie cards are really hard to find.

The price guides only seem to have relevance with post WWII cards and almost EVERYONE knows it.
