Bob - Klem and Evans each have 1921 Exhibits as well. EDIT: should have written 1922 Exhibits, not 1921 (thanks Phil)!
And my vote on Max Carey would be his 1911 Helmar Stamp. It pre-dates those other items and is, at least, a catalogued collectible in the Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards. To me, that is the “bible”. I can understand the logic of limiting “official” rookies to cards with a production run of some amount to make the goal/checklist achievable. But ignoring collectibles like stamps and premiums is silly in my opinion.
