Defining pre-war rookies is always fun.
Oversized stuff...picture packs...postcards...exhibits...premiums...silks/felts...pins...mail-in issues...tabletop game cards...etc etc
Regional issues vs national issues...etc etc
Once you get used to what's out there in the wild an absolutist will include the first thing made, period. Many people will make their own boundaries.
You'll get hard pushback on both sides of whether a 1932 Cubs Picture Pack "Billy Herman" is his RC vs 1933 Goudey "Billy Herman"...also for those that won't consider the 1932 Picture Pack you'll find more argument about whether a regional issue like 1933 Tattoo Orbit is also a RC with the 1933 Goudey.
It's something to talk about, at least.
