Posted By: <b>MikeU</b><p>His first cards are below, as far as which one is the rookie card, it can be debated by defination e.g. should exhibits be considered RC's, should regional cards be considered as RC's. In general, I think the majority of people outside of Net54, maybe even within the board, consider the '33 Goudey as his RC. <br /><br />1926 Exhibits 95 <br />1927 Exhibits 47 <br />1928 Star Player Candy E-Unc. 25 <br />1929 Portraits and Action R316 29 <br />1929-30 Exhibits Four-in-One 23 <br />1931-32 Exhibits Four-in-One 23 <br />1933 Butterfinger Canadian V94 19 <br />1933 DeLong R333 5 <br />1933 Exhibits Four-in-One 12 <br />1933 George C.

Posted By: <b>Richard</b><p>Mike, interesting list of cards. Thanks very much. I know what you mean. Seems like each collector has his own set of criteria to define a rookie card. I guess that is what makes collecting cards so cool. <br />Thanks
