I've pondered this a few times lately, trying to guesstimate approximately how many active collectors of Postwar cards we have in the United States at this point in time (Postwar up to 1980). By active collectors, I mean people who add at least a couple of cards to their collections every year.

I did a little math based on the current U.S. population and some of my own quasi-logic, and came up with a number of somewhere between 40,000 and 60,000. Now, I'm not claiming this to be accurate, as it's more of a wild guesstimate than anything.

Have any of you here tried dragging this through your brains yet? Have you come up with any guesstimates of your own?
