I don't remember exactly how long, but I think from about 1967 (6 years old) until 1972. This is based on the mostly football and baseball cards (and lots of non-sports too) that I found when I was out of college, including a complete 1972 Topps baseball set that was mailed to me by series.
I didn't really start back up gain until the late 80's, early 90's when I mostly started trading all of my stuff for Clemente cards.
