Good analysis....I personally include Postcards and cdvs as cards but not everyone does. When this subject came up I immediately thought of Selee....

Lots of the early19th century HOFers can be found on a CDV or photo but don't have a period card per se. Many of the negro leaguers can be found on rppcs, which are themselves rare, or photos, which are also pretty rare, but don't have any period cards. Off the top of my head that would include Rube Foster, Judy Johnson, Turkey Stearnes, Mule Suttles, Jud Wilson, Sol White, Cum Posey, Effa Manley, Willie Wells, Cool Papa Bell, Bullet Rogan, Buck Leonard, Louis Santop, Frank Grant, J.R. wilkinson, Alex Pompez, Ben Taylor and Joe Williams.
