Topps HOF Rookie Cards - Who Collects Them?
 

I liked this same concept so much from the baseball section so here goes.....

Here are a couple.

Jerry West and Calvin Murphy

Alcindor Rookie
 

A rookie that flies well under the radar

Chamberlain
 

And one that doesn't fly under the radar

Not buying the 68 Mira Lew in the day -- epic fail.

Hi Noel:

Hope that all is well with you, long time no speak.

That Lew is awesome!!!

Never knew it existed, gotta look for one of those now. Good luck to me, right?

BTW that Wilt is great too.

Phil

There is a Bill Bradley pre rookie in that set as well. And Wilt, but of course not a rookie.

Here is Wilt, one of my best buys ever back in the day off ebay Italy.

Hi Phil, yes indeed i hope all is well with you and good to see you post. And yeah, i did not pick this one up near early enough and paid a high price for it. And like Peter said (Hi Peter) there are a ton of quality stars in a myriad of sports in that set. The cards are quite thin are very difficult to get in high grade

I missed out on the only Rod Laver RC I have ever seen. It was nice too a 5.

Fun thread. Here are a few of mine.
