Ask the Standard Catalog . . .

Posted By: Brian H.

Some years ago the notorious Alan Hagar published a book. One of the things I found especially interesting (besides the copy-editing) and useful in that book was its attempts to determine the actual scarcity of vintage issues. I found this particularly useful as it adjusted my expectations about whether I could realistically ever obtain certain issues.

I think it would be most useful if the catalog would note things such as one-of-a kind cards instead of simply pricing them in 3 grades when the only specimen might not even qualify as VG.
