I think that is the most commonly accepted definition (as evidenced by the thread categories and BST sections here on Net54).
But I’m sure there are many that disagree and include more or less years in their definition of vintage.
If someone considers 1991 donruss as vintage (because it’s now 30 years old) I wouldn’t have a problem with that.
(I can’t believe 1991 Donruss is 30 years old!!!  ) |
my definition of vintage is anything that i understand. once all those crazy parallels and prizms and refractors and other stuff began popping up, it was too confusing
