Default HOF Rookies from 1886

I hope this isn't starting a trend but I have to agree with Hal again. There is no way of knowing whether the N.Y. composite cabinet or the individual player cabinets came first or whether they were produced concurrently. Also, based on the reasoning here, the first photographic rookies of many Giant players would be their Kalamazoo Bats cards which have the same images as Hal's cabinet. BTW Hal, I have that same composite cabinet which, to complete the circle, I purchased from Barry many years ago. I've always thought it was one of the best cabinets I had ever seen. I think Lew has one in his current auction.
