Without AA, you'd have to settle for an even later commemorative issue to get a card into your collection.

While perhaps not mainstream, many of these guys ARE available on older items than the 1955 AA set. Check out
1926 Spalding
1928 Star Player Candy
1930s Wheaties sets
1930s Diamond Matchbook Cover sets
Off the top of my head at least Nevers, Friedman, Hein, and Hudson are in at least one of these sets.
