Can anyone think of others? I'd imagine there are some prewar examples, but it's a fun puzzle to ponder!
Probably one of the multi-player rookie cards like '63 Pete Rose; looks like Ken McMullin was a one-timer. Fun question. I'm guessing these count.

A PSA Gem Mint 10 Rose rookie sold for $86,500 (from PSA).
