Awesome once again Ted. Now I'm gonna have a little "technical" fun with the Beckett modern rookie designation rules.
Now, given that the 2nd series of '49 Leaf was only released in 4 states, it would technically then, not be a "Major(or National) Release", but rather a "regional release" that is only an extension of a national release. Thus, it's not officially deserving of RC designation. Making the '49 Bowman of Paige, technically, his ONLY official RC(per Beckett rules).. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Sorry, just in an odd mood, and having a goofy moment.

David I know you are only joshing......but, I will say this, LEAF's 1st series (49 cards) were issued in early Spring of '49 (they preceded the 1st series of BOWMAN's); and, were nationally distributed in large volume. Warren Bowman sued LEAF over the the rights to certain players and the use of the wording "BaseBall Bubble Gum" on LEAF's wrapper. This resulted in LEAF's short- printing of their 2nd series cards. Otherwise, these cards would have been nationally distributed. Therefore, in my opinion, LEAF's 2nd series Paige and Doby are indeed their true "rookie" cards. Same goes for other players that are in this series. . . .![]() ![]() TED Z Last edited by tedzan; 09-03-2013 at 09:04 PM. |

That's a really nice Kiner, Derek. Most of these tend to grade in the 1-2 range.
