Would be better if each year had a picture of a card so you could see what background each card had, per each year. Have on most years, but not all

Hadn't bought a price guide in a long time. Turned off by new product; focusing on 1930-1970, therefore the choice of Vintage Collector. While it's nice to have football. basketball and hockey summaries in case I get distracted, the baseball portion has less detail than expected. (You have to decide who a minor star or semi-star is, for example) Batter Up cards aren't even in the book, Decent articles. Not a bad publication, but I still end up double-checking things with my old guides. Not much has changed in the last decade price-wise, and more details were summarized decades ago.

Prices don't start until page 90. Baseball 90 to page 100, no 19th century prices Football only has 4 pages. 101-104 no card prices before 1935 Basketball 2-pages Hockey 3 pages, so all the pricing is between is between pages 90-110 in a 112 page price guide. It does have some interesting stuff like the 20 best NY Rangers cards & the Bears glory from the mid-80's. Also, interesting history of card collecting. Yet, purely as a price guide It's no different than a monthly. Plus no 70's Fleer cards from the 70's in football, no odd balls such as Wonder or Kellogg's. For football from 1968-1979 it's all Topps. I realize Topps was indeed the king during that era but figured a magazine strictly committed to Vintage would have a 1933 Goudey Red Grange. Would have an 1887 Old Judge baseball card. As far as quality. It's nice, colored, glossy, tough pages. Value, I got mine for $9.95 free shipping, on the cover it's listed $9.99 so that's a good deal. In conclusion I say buy it anywhere around $12 for something to read. Still I can't recommend it purely as a price guide. Read full review

The vintage articles and latest auctions were of great interest. Of course can not forget the guide.

This is a magazine that is not available in Canada. I had to pay more than the cover price but it was necessary.
