Rookie cards aren't just a pointless, flash in the pan fad though. As there is somewhat of a merit to the idea behind them being the most important issue of a player...If anything, Inserts, serial numbered SP's and intentional Topps errors(basically anything gimmicky) are the "Beanie Babies" of collecting. Year in, year out, people continuously buy into the new inserts, only to forget about them a few years down the road. Anyone remember the '92 fleer Roger Clemens insert set? Or Upper Deck's original heroes of Baseball sets from the early 90's?
