I bet 90%+ of the cards submitted were modern. Look, there really aren’t that many prewar cards out there, and I bet a good portion of prewar cards extant () have already been graded or will not be graded unless/until the current owner sells; in other words, many more prewar collectors, whereas all modern must be in plastic bc it’s an asset rather than something to collect. For that reason alone it makes sense that 90% of the cards in his article are modern/post war.

Ok, big difference between modern and post war…. I do think there are likely a ton of postwar cards still raw (1945-1980). I wonder how many of these were submitted. I bet not many as the juice is probably not worth the squeeze - who wants to pay those prices to grade a 1967 Rose that grades a 5?

Thoughts: Of the cards currently being submitted to PSA, what percentage is prewar (1942ish or older), post-war vintage (1942-1980), modern (1981-2010), ultra modern (2010+). And, how does that break down differ with SGC (I assume more vintage) and Beckett (I assume much more modern)?

BTW- aside from prewar, I made up those temporal distinctions but I think they make sense

Are they imaging all cards grade now? Or was this only for the expensive submissions at the National?

I’d guess the top 10 he picked were an overall representation of what the company is seeing most these days. A ton of modern basketball & baseball, and a little vintage baseball, football, random “futbol” & Pokémon cards. Can’t offend any of the genres by forgoing fair representation.

Man, there are some (IMO) UGLY basketball cards in there. I guess that's where all the millennial money is now but yuck.

Guess my Chamberlain rookie in 7 didn't make the cut.

I prefer the original Adam Bomb card and still have a couple. No need to add metallic borders to that one.

99% of the cards submitted are just to flip. It's a game of hot potato
