what would the buyers of little golden books call vintage
1950's,-60's or 70's and what price would you put on them if in good condition

there are many serious collectors of little golden books but it is very important that you take a photo of the back of the book -
the little golden books can be dated by their different backs

The "vintage" should only relate to the New York and Sydney editions IMHO as they are more the "start" of
the LGB's.
The New York editions have the Brown spine and Sydney editions have the four coloured backs.
The very early books had a blue spine and dust jackets.
They can both get some some good money depending on the quality and whether it's a scarce edition.
Books by Eloise Wilkin in these editions will always bring higher prices.
There are some other scarce books around.
You'll need this so you can state if it's a true first edition: LGB Editions.
