Do I count into the prewar census?
Actually, I meant to include only Postwar to 1980 collectors, since I'm trying to figure out approximately how many active collectors collect those years specifically.

I realize that there are some who collect baseball cards across the board -- modern, vintage, tobacco, photos, etc. Would it be safe to assume they are a minority compared to the number of collectors who focus 99% on just 1 era of cards, say ... modern only, or, tobacco only?
