Prognosis is good IMHO
I am of the opinion that there are a lot of people out there like me in one respect. We were heavily into collecting the "shiny new stuff" in the 1970's and 1980's when we were kids. We were part of the "boom" in collecting cards, and many of us revered the vintage stuff at the time, but could not afford it. Then the 90's came with all of the truly "shiny" new stuff and we soured on the hobby and what it became.
Many of us in this situation now find ourselves with some amount of disposable income for the first time. As such, I see the market for vintage...cards that many of us once yearned for from afar, and cards that retained their value while the new stuff tanked...to be strong going forward for quite a while.
That's my take anyway.
