I do know that the paper drive of WWII was the demise of a lot of remaining baseball cards that were laying around. Also on the back of the 1914 Cracker Jacks it says they printed up 10,000,000 million of each card so they were plentiful at one time. Because Topps started issuing complete sets in 1959 I would guess that 58 and under are much less abundant but still plenty around.
