I figured I'd add a picture to give you a little nudge.

Dean, good point about their attractiveness in lower condition. That would be important to me as I would probably aim at vgex and lower. In collecting post war, I seldom if ever bought a card with a crease. This would change if I collected T206s. I wouldn't want creasing right across the face/focal point but otherwise a crease or two would be ok. Really other than substantial paper loss or staining, I would be good to go. That Johnson is very, very nice!
