It's exactly what I did. Manufactured scarcity of prospective stars vs. genuine history of the greats of our national pastime was a no brainer. Once I made the move, I never looked back.

I collected both modern and vintage from the start. Even as a kid, I was interested in both. But latest insert collecting was fool's collecting has it didn't hold it's value.

I made the switch and haven't looked back. This switch was completed in 1983, but 1983 Topps, Fleer and Donruss cards were considered new then.

Default on a lighter note...

I started collecting vintage cards in 1959, when they were new...
but, they are all vintage now!
