jay behrensTom, no one is saying that your collecting preferences are wrong, but saying that there should be a different standard for the definition of a rookie is like these clowns that say there should be more lenient grading for vintage cards because they older and/or produced on inferior stock.
Mint is mint no matter how old the card is and the definition of a rookie is still the same whether it is a new card or a vintage card.
