I'm not sure; I'll see. I've got some pretty old slabs.

It was at least September 26, 2002.

I typed in mine (June 6, 2002) and forgot to change it to vintage and I got one for September 10, 1999.

Thanks for the help!

September 10, 1999 is the oldest slab I've heard of before.

Do you guess possibly late 1999...?

I purposely didn't change it to vintage and I got June 1, 1999.

I found June 1, 1999.

Maybe even as early as 1998.
