  Consider a mixed quantum mechanical state, describing a statistical ensemble
in terms of an arbitrary density operator $\rho$ of low purity, $\tr\rho^2\ll
1$, and yielding the ensemble averaged expectation value $\tr(\rho A)$ for any
observable $A$. Assuming that the given statistical ensemble $\rho$ is
generated by randomly sampling pure states $|\psi>$ according to the
corresponding so-called Gaussian adjusted projected measure $[$Goldstein et
al., J. Stat. Phys. 125, 1197 (2006)$]$, the expectation value $<\psi|A|\psi>$
is shown to be extremely close to the ensemble average $\tr(\rho A)$ for the
overwhelming majority of pure states $|\psi>$ and any experimentally realistic
observable $A$. In particular, such a `typicality' property holds whenever the
Hilbert space $\hr$ of the system contains a high dimensional subspace
$\hr_+\subset\hr$ with the property that all $|\psi>\in\hr_+$ are realized with
equal probability and all other $|\psi> \in\hr$ are excluded.
