Wow, awesome job as usual, Phil! Will you be putting out an updated version of your book? And I wonder if Lyman at Old Cardboard will be updating their list. I do like that they give several options. Some of the later cards make sense, some don't (like a 1954 topps RC with a 1955 Topps listed as another alternative). I thought they credited you with helping them on that list, which is why I ask.
Anyway, one point on photos. Personally, I consider a widespread issued photo with text, facsimile sigs, etc. to be okay as Rookies, because they were issued as collectibles. As opposed to news photos and other photos that were not issued as collectibles or not issued in large quantities. Not sure if that makes sense.
I also am a little confused why some premiums count but others don't based on size. I'm more open on those. But either way on these two things, it is a great list.
Mark
