First of all I can't believe anyone agrees with me . But regardless of that you might be interpreting what I said incorrectly. I guess it could be called the end of the war category? But as others have mentioned too, I have always felt the category for pre war was when WWII ended. Otherwise, they would be war cards. Really, whatever floats your boat is fine by me. As I had mentioned way above also, I don't think there can be a definitive answer except the technical one (others may disagree). Wiki says WWII started in 1941, so if you go with them (and most others), anything before that is pre-wwII. I am not sure how that can be argued in a technical manner. But for this board and I, because it can be somewhat controversial, we went with a different way to address it; WWII & Older
