60s cards are now 40+ to 50+ years old. I would say that makes them vintage.

I think 60's... People outside of collecting that I know even think Mantle is the main 'vintage' player. His last card was in '69 so I guess that's the most recent year of vintage to me.

It seems to me it depends on your age.

If you collected when you were a child, then stopped and came back to it when you were older. It seems like the decade you were first collecting in starts the vintage.

If you have collected as long as you can remember with no break, it is the decade before you were born (or started collecting).

As a kid, I collected from 1975-1983, and even then I felt that the 1950s were vintage; especially the 1950-52 Bowman full color "art" cards, which looked vintage because they were not photos (kind of like the 1933-34 Goudeys, at least in my mind).....
