Have to disagree on this one. The Swamp Find was an aberration, any cards out there which have not been discovered are likely in lower grade. While I think there may be some collectors who are nearing the end of the line and who never had any of their cards graded, it's hard to believe that any unknown, undiscovered pre-war cards in high grade, tobacco or caramel, are likely to surface. Combine the fact that everyone knows old baseball cards can be very valuable with the fact that there were lots of paper drives during World War One and World War Two, and well-meaning mothers who tossed cards away and I've got to disagree with your statement....
