No problem Rob. The term Rookie gets thrown around too loosely by many, even by the "professionals", and while some people will accept them as rookies, there's usually a higher percentage that don't.. Not that I'm generally the conformist type, but when it comes to cards, as far as value and resale potential(if needed in an emergency), having the "more widely accepted" rookies, as opposed to the most "generically accepted", will not only feel more satisfying, but will also be easier to move..
Having the '48 of Slaughter to me(as a rookie card) would've been the easy way out. Kind of like wanting a 1993 SP Jeter, but settling for one of his Classic cards instead, because they're still technically rookies.
