I just counted mine and I have 138. This is including this year's class (Smoltz)
What qualifies (for my purposes)? First and foremost, the cards must have been produced while the player was an active major league player, not just a coach or manager or minor leaguer. So, I can't use my T206 Beckley or McGraw, nor would the T206 McGinnity. Joe Torre doesn't count as he was inducted as a manager. As far as what determines a card, I think the general acceptance of postcards like the Exhibits and the 1907 Cobb and game cards should be counted. I'm counting my 1889 ER Williams game card of Pud Galvin (with Dave Orr) as well as my W560 Walter and my 1913 National Game and 1914 Polo Grounds game cards. If you have a differing opinion on what constitutes a 'card', please feel free to share.
