Jeff LichtmanJoe, I just laughed out loud at your 2). 
However, I suppose you were not aware of the letter Jackie wrote to Pee Wee Reese right before he died. In the letter he discussed their mutual love of rookie baseball card collecting -- and Jackie's firm belief that the Leaf and/or the Bond Bread cards were his true rookies. I have a copy of the letter which I will share with you at the next NY Dinner Thread Dinner. By the way, the card below was actually buried with Jackie. Some ghoul was kind enough to somehow get his hands on it, have it graded, and sell it to me.
