Here's a stray thought from the very top of my head (read: I haven't done any research!): |

75 Topps will probably some day have 4 HOFer rookies: Brett, Yount, Gary Carter, Rice |

on how you define rookie. Using a strict definition, I can't imagine any could argue anything other than the Old Judge set...given its preponderance of HOF rookie cards... |

and for that reason, I would be tempted to disqualify some of Ted's too, right? since those sets were the first major issues of the post-war period and had some "catching up" to do... |

You guys are right about the Old Judge cards but this thread is in the post-war section so it should only include late 1940's - 1980's cards, correct? |

Although it is not really a card, Duke Snider's first appearance is on a 1947 Brooklyn Dodgers Team Issue Photo Pak. These are 6 1/2" X 9" and are difficult to maintain because of their size and none of the grading companies are able to encapsulate them. |

51's amazing with Fox/Mantle/Mays/Ford/Irvin but I'm partial to the 54 year with Aaron/Kaline/Banks. |

1956(Aparicio only?), 1964 (only Niekro?) or 1970 (no one?) |

Thurman Munson's rookie card is in the 1970 set. |

Gotta put a spot in here for my favorite Topps set, the 57s! How about TWO Robinsons in Brooks and Frank, Jim Bunning, Drysdale, and Mazeroski. Aside from the HOFers, it also has RCs from Colavito, Herzog, Boyer, Richardson, and Kubek. Plus, the Mantle, Williams, and Koufax are pretty popular cards from that set, not to mention the #407 card "Mantle/Berra." |

Carlton, Morgan, Hunter, and Perez, plus a faux rookie of P. Niekro (card calls him a rookie). |

To me a rookie card isn't very exciting unless it's of a pretty major player. My vote for the best group in one set goes to 1954 Topps Aaron, Banks, and Kaline. |
