Also, most consider Stan Coveleski's rookie issue to be the W520 and/or W522 because there are no earlier cards of him in a major league uniform. That said, there are no other 1920 issues of Coveleski anyway (with the exception of a 1920 Cleveland Team PC), but it does open the door for calling his 1921-23 E220 National Caramel and 1921 Exhibits cards as rookies now. Nothing like having your "rookie" card image taken when you are 31 years old and a Pennant winner!

Exciting stuff!

For me, I prefer this minor league postcard from 1909, which includes Mr. Coveleski while with the Lancaster Red Roses:
