Thorn EMI

How old is something before it is officially vintage? There are rules about this sort of thing. One source I found says antique is 100 yar old and vintage is 50 yar old, but is it a problem if the thing that is now vintage was bought by yourself.  Because the record player that I saved up for when I was 12 is now over 50 yar old.  It did not travel well in the move but I just got it back from the Geelong Real Music record store and it has been fixed for $20. I can hear it now, melodiously meandering across SGT Peppers. There is a song on there I am planning to play on my Birthday. Any guesses?
