Default MLB HOF RC ... Is it possible?

Dan:

Great question!!! Obviously, eliminating Negro Leaguers & Pioneers makes the task much more possible but you could probably still include Managers as the only two really "impossible" Rookie Card would be Frank Selee's 1904 Allegheny & John McGraw's 1894 Alpha Photo Engraving. You didn't really specify Umpires or Executives so I assume that you are not including them either. If we stick to your criteria and do not include Minor League cards or unique cabinet cards or unique RPPC's, here would be your toughest stumbling blocks:

(3) - 1894 Alpha Photo Engraving (Jennings, Keeler & J. Kelley)
(2) - 1893 Just So Tobacco (C. Young & Burkett)
1927 Middy Bread Die-Cuts (Hafey)
(2) - 1948 Philadelphia Bulletin (Ashburn & R. Roberts)
1925 Universal Toy (H. Wilson)
(6) - 1886 N167 (Keefe, Welch, Connor, Ewing, Ward & O'Rourke)
(2) - 1946 Sears Cardinals P/C (Musial & Schoendienst)
1908 American Publishing P/C (Marquard)
1948 Safe-T-Card (Wynn)

So to answer your question "is it possible", I would say no but the fun is getting as close as you can!!!
