One question: Why did you decide to go for rookie cards even when they didn’t show the player in a Cubs uniform?

Thanks!
A couple reasons I guess. I like collecting rookie cards just in general, so it never really bothered me that a few guys had the wrong jersey on. If Fergie Jenkins is a big deal to Cubs collectors, then his rookie card should be also. Since I don't limit myself to one card per player, I can have the first Cubs cards of those guys also.
Second, the PSA set registry for the Cubs Hall of Fame is for their rookie cards, not first Cubs cards. And I'm competitive and want to win.
