Pete, I also grew up collecting in the mid/late 1970's.
I would walk to the store after school with friends to buy packs. Would ride my bike to Toy City to buy the 3 pk cellos. Go to a local show and ohh-ahh and marveled at all the cards. Traded at school lunchtime with other kids. Go over what we had waiting at the bus stop.
At the time, 1970, 71 & 72 cards seemed old, almost ancient.
Now, old to me is pre-1952.
But back to the more important note - old ? I'm not old, er, am I ? Sigh.
