How long should vinyl last?

Say I found a prestine copy of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band. It was brand new and never opened. If I play it on a state of the art turntable, how many years of play can I get out of it if I play it once a week and take excellent care of it? How long before the initial crispness disappears?

I have brand new records that behaive that they're warped.
I have records over 50y.o and they're still sound brand new.
Any case if I buy records I make sure that they at least look new.
