T206 v Cracker Jack pricing

[MVSNYC]

I think the estimate of 3,000 of each T206 currently existing, is rather high, IMO.

I used to think so as well, but it may not be that far off. Take for example a look at pop reports for a card where I would think a good number of copies have been graded - Ty Cobb. On the bat on/off and green portraits, there are ~1,000+ graded copies, and more like 2,000 red portraits. So maybe the number is 1,500 - 2,000 for many T206s, and 3,000 for cards like the red Cobb that were in all series?

Half of those graded cards could be re-grades counted more than once. I think 3500 is high for any single T206. Heck, I think 2000 is a high number.
