Re: The Vintage Funds (the "Trust"), Files Nos. 33-89078
and 811-8968
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule 477 promulgated under the Securities Act of
1933, the Trust hereby requests withdrawal of Post-Effective
Amendment No. 4 to the Trust's Registration Statement as soon as
possible. The Amendment was filed pursuant to Rule 485(a) on
December 3, 1996 and is not yet effective.
As a result of recent conversations with Richard Pfordte,
the Trust's examiner, it has come to our attention that the Trust
must file another post-effective amendment pursuant to Rule
485(a) within the next few days. The Trust requests withdrawal
of Post-Effective Amendment No. 4 so that this subsequent
amendment may be filed.
Very truly yours,
THE VINTAGE FUNDS
