unfortunately, not mine. It's been on my want list for years. It first sold in REA in 2006 and then at the now-defunct Legendary Auctions in 2012. I was hoping it would stay on that 6-year cycle and find its way into my hands in 2018, but to not avail. But I agree, it's a beauty!

So here is a related question. If the first card of a player issued with that player did not get issued until the player had been in the Major Leagues long enough to no longer be considered a rookie, do you still call it a rookie card? If that player was alive and you called him a rookie at that point in his career, he would probably pop you in the eye for calling him that. I'm just playing Devil's Advocate here, I personally don't pay attention to rookie when I buy cards for my collection, I just buy cards I think are neat. Everyone's different. And that's okay.

Satchel Paige? One of the oldest "rookies" around (1948 Leaf)...yep, that's why I prefer early career items (whether that be negro leagues, minor leagues, or even town teams / semi-pro items). I get around the "rookie" issue by collecting the "earliest collectibles" of players.
Ichiro is a special example too...
