Vintage rookies
I think a really good question is when the "Rookie" or first card became a significant factor in Pre-WW2 vintage collecting. I have been collecting vintage for 30 years now, and was not aware of much buzz about vintage HOF rookies during my first couple of decades...it wasn't mentioned often when people were selling cards or in auctions. To me it always seemed like a modern day card phenomena, and I was just fine about it. It wasn't until about a dozen years or so that the rookie card craze finally started to gradually make its way over to the vintage side. To me, being a moderate budget collector, it just meant that certain cards were now going to be unobtainable.
Anyone else notice that shift, or have a different viewpoint on the vintage rookie market and when it became an important factor? Brian
