How many collections lay dormant?

Hi Ted, Barry, and the rest of my buddies,
The first time I heard the term population report used in regards to cards was from Alan Hager when he was up here at one of my shows pitching his BB Card Book and launching his "6-Sport" Price Guide!
I had a nice conversation with him, and then the pitch came about per cent of cards in various conditions that survived time, abuse, etc.., the need for a book like "6-Sport" to accurately value them and the Acu-grade slabbing and preserving cards. Alan was an interesting guy.
A few months later, Dennis Purdy said the "book was pretty, but then again so aren't most whores!" in his expose on Alan Hager: Buffalo Hunter in the Wild West. Dennis was another great guy and I enjoyed his magazine a lot.
Anyway, I like my cards in ANY condition. I get as much enjoyment from a beat up Jim Tabor card as I do a PSA 7 Babe Ruth. I like what I like!
