Hank Aaron Rookies
I would like to get a concensus of opinion on what everyone thinks Hank Aaron's Rookie (notice I did not say Rookie Card) should be amongst the above three options

1954 Topps
I guess it depends on how you define "Rookie". If you mean his first printed appearance on a paper product that was issued, then I guess Indianapolis is it. He definitely was a "Rookie" in 1952 in the minor league.
I for one chose 1954 Topps as that to me is when he made his first appearance in the major league and his appearance on a paper product was distributed not regionally, but nation wide. I have a 1980 Charlotte Orioles Cal Ripken card, but I don't consider that his Rookie. Again, it is all going to depend on how you define "Rookie". r/ Frank

The Indianapolis Clowns postcard is most certainly a desirable card, though I would likely classify it as a pre-rookie. I went with the '54 Topps as well.

Aaron
Once again, since the 54 Topps card is the only one I have, I will stick with it. But, it's ok with me if I am wrong....because I usually am

Thanks Phil
That's pretty neat. What price range do they usually trade in and are they hard to find? I'd like to pick up one to get autographed for my signed rookie/pre rookie collection Mike

I really like the Johnston Cookies card, but also the Topps.

I must say that I am kind of surprised that the other 1954 Aaron regional cards along with the Topps has not gotten more votes. The majority rules though so it appears that the general concensus is that most collectors consider just the '54 Topps Aaron as his true Rookie Card. Well, the card catalogues and grading companies have that one right then.
