Posted By: <b>Charlie O'Neal</b><p> &lt; 2% I still have all my cards from when I was a kid so unless I sell them the vintage collection will never take over a large percentage of my collection. <br /><br />Right now I am collecting 95% vintage and 5% people I enjoyed growing up (ex. Rickey Henderson, McGwire, Griffey, etc)

Posted By: <b>jay behrens</b><p>Only post war stuff that is truly part of my collection is my cards from my childhood. Not sure, and don't care, what the value of a 1971 and 72 Topps set is, since I will never sell them. So essentially, my collection is 100% pre-war, dollar-wise.<br /><br />jay<br><br>I'm incompetent at being incontenent.

Posted By: <b>James Feagin</b><p>I have a run of Topps sets from 1975-1986, would those cumalitive cards count? Or are we only talking about singles? Either way, I judge based on a cards beauty, not what year it was made. 5-7% at most.

Posted By: <b>Rob (NYC)</b><p>50%, but prewar comprises about only 10% of my entire collection (1992-99 & 2005).<br />Since February 2005, prewar is about 65% of my "rebirth (starting over) collection", the other 35% is personal nostalgia.

Posted By: <b>Jim Crandell</b><p>Hmmm--probably 25-30%--maybe more. If my 150 T206 psa 8 commons are really worth a minimum of $2,500 and my psa 8 Goudey SportKings set $200K thenn probably more.<br /><br />High grade prewar is the fastest appreciating sector of the market. The supply is truly limited.
