That logic is faulty. Scarcity does not equal value. Supply & demand.
Also, I'm not sure what the average pre-war card is (or if there even is such a thing) but T206s are the most plentiful of all pre-war issues.
Why not just compare current listings on eBay - that should give you a rough metric. Compare the results of a baseball card search for T205s vs 1955 topps or something like that.
