I collect because of second hand nostalgia. And I just don't have nostalgia for anything really past the 50s/60s. Even though that was far before my time. If I collected because of my love of baseball and just because players were great In the 80s I'd have a collection that is meaningless to me.
I'd wager to say half the forum is the same way but for pre war cards, who don't touch anything past the 40s. Some maybe not even collect out of the 1800s.
