Dan:

Also I probably wouldn't of opted to have a Bancroft Rookie Card (and if I did I may have went with the m101-5 as his rookie - which is more in line with the true definition of rookie card), but since he played for Portland (as identified in the Zeenut), and I grew up in Oregon, I HAD to have that Zeenut card. So that is another circle to be added to MY Venn Diagram of HOF rookie card collecting.

In fact that is a reason (played in Portland) that in some point in the future I may add a Thorpe Zeenut - even though he is not in the MLB HOF.
