Do any of the ETopps cards count as rookies? It's been so long.
I always read their rules as "a rookie card is a players first card issued, as long as it exists in big enough quantities that all dealers can hype it and readily obtain inventory. "

I would consider eTopps rookies. So does Topps, note logo.
