I do believe Derek mentioned his... although, I know you're well aware of Derek's amazing collection! I would say, the majority of my more recent acquisitions COULD be counted as "rookies." But when I began this project, I wanted to include my childhood cards, of which most were simply career-contemporary. Also, there's the added expense, as you know! But if the price is not too prohibitive, I will generally opt for the earliest card I can find.
