Regarding the Marquard Rookie, the 2010 SCBC lists the Hall's Studio NY Giants Cabinet Cards as a 1908 issue which would make it the undisputed Marquard Rookie (assuming you accept cabinet cards as Rookies). However, a look at Marquard's 1908 season indicates that he pitched exactly one Major League game during the last week of the season. Is it realistic to believe that Hall's Studio would have produced a Marquard cabinet in 1908 or would a 1909 date make more sense?
