but this isn't what Leon is asking. Sure, 1964 cards might be "vintage" now, but they weren't vintage when you first started buying them in 64'.
Now, if you started buying T206's in 1964, then that would count.
Myself personally, i just started collecting pre-war about 3 years ago or so and the reason why was because of this website.
Ive been a modern collector (and collecting stuff from the 50s-90's) pretty much my entire life (except for maybe about a 6 or 7 year slow period in my late teens/early 20s). Im 35 now and have been collecting "hard" for the last 10 years or so.
I happened onto this site from another modern board a few years back and started slowly "lurking" every few days, within a couple months i was "hard-core addict" of pre-war cards. o thanks to everyone on this forum, lol!!!
