The way I understood it, was they used the term to identify any photo which was vintage to the time of the image. Whether it was a Press, Wire, Laser, Sound, Tele, snapshot or otherwise.
Most of the descriptions were basically from the same template and you were meant to decide for yourself based on the photos they provided.
I had my eye on the large lot of boxing photos but they were generally all from a period in which Laserphotos and Wirephotos were the general norm, and they were very inferior in quality during that time period (60's through 80's). Last I saw it ended with no bids.
