Angel Scull in the 54 Topps Set comes to mind. Many players in the 2/3 or more rookie cards never played in the majors
My personal favorite is the 1964 Topps Archie Skeen (#423 or so IIRC) card with this biographical nugget: Archie has retired to become a school teacher. Thus ended the Archie Skeen investment club Rich
