Posted By: <b>Glenn</b><p>Not sure what everyone else thinks, but I used to have his T207, and I considered that his rookie card.

Posted By: <b>fkw</b><p>T332 is 1 year older than the T207, so obviously is the rookie.<br /><br />But all rookie card collectors have their own rules <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Hal Lewis</b><p>Rule #1:<br /><br />Collect baseball CARDS, not stamps!<br /><br /><img src="/images/wink.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Richard</b><p>I second that motion. How anyone could consider a stamp a Baseball card is beyond me. Stamps were issued as postage and not Baseball cards. That is like comparing Apples & Oranges.

Posted By: <b>fkw</b><p>ha ha <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />A T332 is just as much a card as a T330-2, W555, or a E254 or E286. It is made of paper, was issued in a package of tobacco, and has a baseball player pictured on it.<br /><br />I guess the M101-2 Alexander or A.C.Dietsche Cobb arent rookies either?<br /><br />Like I said...... the collector makes his own "Rookie" rules (usually corresponding to what they own).<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Many things are considered cards that aren't technically cards. Saying that T332's aren't cards is obviously fitting one's own definition of a card. They are classified in the ACC so they are more of a card to me than many others....But if someone wants to say they aren't cards...that's their opinion and everyone is entitled to one...
