Back in the 30's official accounting documents were found for Goudey that had similar numbers and that was 20 years previous. Tobacco cards, way more. Cigs were sold everywhere.
Not necessarily so from what I've read. Some stories about certain series being available then real tough to find the next series, especially the last series.

Tedz on Net54, when I asked him, stated this and he said in all his time collecting the 52 Topps cards he never once seen the Look N See cards.
Some areas were better than others to get cards from but they weren't readily available like some might think.
