Absolutely well said. The history of the card is what draws me to it. I live in the poor to VG world and love it.

Here are two of mine that look absolutely great to me and still tell a story. I always think about the previous owners and how they handled these types of cards but didn't destroy them. They cared for them as I do.

And I love a nice VG ungraded card that I can hold in my hands. I think about what it was like to pull the card from the cigarette pack or candy box and first hold it in my hands. Then tossing it into the box at home with all the others that I had collected.

Here's another one where the card is actually in really nice shape, but a kid long ago used the back as an actual checklist and marked off the cards as he got them. I find it awesome that he completed the set and this card forever captures that.
