Hey guys--my name is Garrett and I am long time collector who has always cherished the vintage realm of the hobby. My father decided to give me his childhood collection a few months ago with most of the bigger names in the 50's and 60's, so now I am building sets. I know it may sound crazy that a 29year old loves vintage....but it's true!
I am looking forward to this site and meeting some great vintage collectors across the hobby! Thanks!

Welcome from the Louisville area (in S. Indiana, now). Similar to Leon, I'm 51, but I don't feel a day over 50-something.

Welcome aboard, Garrett! Greetings from the Dallas, Texas area.
There's nothing odd at all about a 29 year old loving pre-war and vintage cards. It just means you've developed refined tastes a little bit before most people your age.  I think it's cool your dad gave you his collection. Are you going to focus on that same period, or have you thought about exploring cards from previous eras? There are a lot of great pre-war sets that you might really enjoy, too. Have a look around. You never know what you might find. Have fun! Bill (42 years young)

Welcome aboard. I wish I would have been introduced to the t206 set in my 20s instead of wasting all kinds of energy on 80s and 90s stuff.
