Default Joe DiMaggio's Rookie Card?

I'm trying to figure this out: what is Joe DiMaggio's rookie card?

Either of the 1936 issues.

Really interesting question. I guess it depends on how you define things.

I don't think issues like R312 are "cards" so so me personally, I wouldn't include them.

Also, Zeenut is a minor league card, so I personally wouldn't include that either.

Then it gets a little tougher to decide. Should foreign issues count? Is Canada "foreign"?

I'm not sure how I would answer that. If you're ok with a "foreign" card, then I think 1936WWG is the rookie. If not, then 38 Goudey.

But, the 38 Goudy is such a stupid looking card, I'd never buy one.

If I wanted a DiMaggio, what I'd personally get is one of the Play Ball issues.

I'm following Don on this one. Agreed the 1938 is a mainstream issue but I consider the 1939 Playball as his rookie when I bought mine. This could spark a great debate, but ultimately in comes down to minor vs major league issue and what people consider mainstream issues cards.

The weirdly zoomed in 36 WWG in my book.
