    Vintage, yes or no?

    It appears I have been sitting on these for a while. I believe them to be at least 40 years old. Loading them up though.

    If they look OK, then they probably are.
    I'd load 'em.

    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.

    Oh, I'm loading them. Just thought the packaging and especially the pricing said "Vintage" LOL I am not muc of a collector of anything. I have enough junk sitting around I plan to use, I don't need to be keeping stuff I don't plan to use too.

    You might save the packaging for show and tell.

    I found an old stash of mine from the early 1980's. How about prices of $1.99/100? They are working fine.

    I'm still reloading from similar cartons that I got in the 80's. They will work.
