The center on the Warsaw basketball team is a ten foot Pole.

Barry, it is insights like that that get you nominated for the hobby's Mt. Rushmore.

It's hard work being clever.

And since you asked, I consider the N172 to be Nichols's rookie card. It makes no sense to say the N300, issued eight years later, is it. I know his team is Omaha but as far as I'm considered that's a stone's throw from the majors. I go for whichever is issued first, although I admit there could be exceptions.

I simply don't care. I like both the N172 cards and the Mayo and have each. It doesn't matter to me at all which one is his rookie. Frankly, the whole "rookie" thing has never made very much sense to me, although looking at relative card values, many others obviously feel very differently about that. Collect what you like and all is good IMO.

I am partial to Nichols 1898 National Copper Plate, my favorite set due to the great picture and hugely informative back narrative.
