Certainly cabinets and cdvs are not baseball cards, but again, if it's your personal preference to include a cabinet photo of a player as a "rookie" in your collection, I don't see what the problem is with doing so. Also, more than one copy was produced of some (most?) cabinets and cdvs, so it could be argued that cabinets and cdvs are more legitimate "rookies" than an Allegheny. But, of course, I'm just being the devil's advocate on that one. If I collected pre-wwI HOF rookies (which I might some day), I would have considered the 1892 Bingo cabinet as my Keeler "rookie" - only because Democracy allows me to do so.

Hi Leon - I don't think anyone's endangering world peace here. This seems like a pretty calm and worthwhile discussion thread.
