Default What is considered the Billy Martin Rookie?

Posted By: Joann

Peter (or anyone that wants to ring in):

I thought the M101-5's were nationally distributed? They show Ruth in his Boston uniform. How does this square with Beckett's definition, or how does the Beckett definition end up with the 33 Goudey being a rookie? This was widely considered Ruth's rookie card before the 1914 Baltimore News cards showed up in number. I think I must be missing something here.

PaulPaulPaul - all three of you:

What an eloquent argument for why first card should be considered rookie card for vintage issues. Thank you - it helps clarify thinking even though I do not target rookie cards at all.
