I think part of it would also have to be how active a collector is. I collect both pre and post war cards. I prefer post-war, mainly because of budget and personal family history, but still have and love pre-war cards.
I probably add 2 to 10 pre war cards a year while adding more like 20 - 30 post war a year. I would consider myself only a casual pre war collector but still a collector none the less.
I also have never attended a show for pre war purchases. Maily because there just aren't that many around this part of the country. But every time I'm in an antique store or auction I am always on the look out for the next "find" in my collection.
If you consider casual collectors then wouldn't the total number increase?
Just my opinion,
Drew
