Rarities and Scarcities as of lately

There are still a lot of old time collectors around who have put together signifcant collections and have managed to remain below the radar. When prices are high, like they are today, some of them will be inclined to sell.

I think rare cards will always be rare, but we may not know all of the examples out there. I always assumed if I knew about five different examples of a rare item, that there were at least ten known. I never assumed I knew where everything was, as some collectors are very private.
