Personal collection.........I wish!

A number of years ago now, I took my copy of The Standard Catalogue of Baseball Cards and went year by year (starting with the oldest first) filling in on a spreadsheet the earliest card set that each HOF'er appeared on. Of course, there were some adjustments made over the following years but that is how it all started.

This is a great list! Thanks for sharing and the research that went into it! Anyone on here with more than say 1/2 of the cards listed? Be a fun lifetime project to see what could be put together.

Before I gave up the quest and sold everything, I was up around 85% complete. My collection was a mix and match though and included many first cards such as minor leagues, team issues, etc. so all of the cards would not match my rookie list but many examples were actually better than the true rookie cards listed.
