Chris BlandYes, everyone can choose to define a rookie card however they want. If I am collecting rookie cards, I would prefer to have the Nichols OJ over a card that was issued 5 years after his major league debut. Maybe that makes me a "first card" collector then...
I dont really care if others consider it a rookie or not - actually, with the prices "true" rookie cards have been getting lately, I would just as soon that no one agree with me!
