rookie list?

[Archive]

Posted By: <b>Bryan Long</b><p>I was wondering if anyone happens to have a list of HOF rookie cards. I could do the leg work on my own but I thought that I would check to see if anyone has done it already first. I know that there are some HOF rookie collectors out there so I figured it was worth a shot.

Did it have to be widely distributed? Did it have to be part of a set? Did it have to be card-sized and not a big picture? Did it have to come with a product or could it be an advertising piece?? THESE ARE ALL MATTERS OF OPINION AND CHOICE.<br /><br />2) There is a LOT of dipsute in the hobby about what constitutes a "rookie." Does an "update" or "traded" set count? Does a minor league card count? Does a card count if it was only offered by one store in the whole World and not part of a large set? THESE ARE ALSO MATTERS OF OPINION AND CHOICE.<br /><br /><img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />These debates will NEVER end ... which is what keeps our hobby invigorated...<br /><br />so collect WHICHEVER "rookie" "cards" you like personally and don't worry about what other people think!!!<br /><br /><img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />
