Is there such thing as junk era vintage cards?

I’m sure you are taking about early 1970’s cause ain’t no one got time for 1979 Topps!

Wasn't 1952 Topps junk at one point?

It's said that they dumped a cargo container of the cards into the Atlantic Ocean because the cards weren't worth storing.

My collecting began with '77, '78, '79, and '80 Topps. Not surprisingly, I have a disproportionately high degree of affection for those sets.

And, every thread needs a card:

Very Cool!!! That’s what makes this hobby to great is there is room for everyone to enjoy what they like best!

Pretty much anything after 1972 I consider to be semi-junk until 1981 when it becomes true junk. The only exception I have is for 1975 because of the cool design.
