warshawlawHal, Richard, you just KILL me.
Seriously, the whole rookie thing is really kinda dumb w/r/t vintage because of the existence of so many regional minor league cards. I mean, how do you realistically speak of a rookie card as so very desirable when minor league cards preceeded the "rookie" cards of Babe Ruth, Casey Stengel, all 3 DiMaggios, Heilmann, Gomez, both Waners, Lombardi, O'Doul, Weaver, Cochrane, Lazzeri, Bancroft, Coveleski, McMullen, Risberg, Gandil, Vance, Kamm, Averill, Crosetti. Some of these guys even had multiple cards in these sets. There are so many other first cards of major leaguers from minor league sets.
