We feel it is time to adjust the date for books to qualify as a Golden Oldie. After a little debate on how far to change it, any book that is first published before 1970 will now qualify for being a Golden Oldie. For ease of moderation, we are keeping it a simple decade as the cutoff where the books were at least 50 years old.

Just to be clear, it's 1969 or earlier, not 1970 or earlier?
