Are those even catalogued? Anyways, my main concern with those is that they aren't necessarily cards intended for collecting, but possibly just simply photo's. I really don't know enough about those to comment on the nature of their existence(I've seen Ryder cabinets at flea markets of RANDOM men and women). BUT I do know that the Just So Young, for one, features him in uniform and was released with baseball and advertising in mind. It is a true card, and not just a picture.. Again, I'm not trying to diminish the true value of the rogers or ryders cabinets, because I think they are both probably equally as important, but they may not(by standard definition) technically be cards. Everyone has their own interpretation of what is and what isn't a "card" though, and I'll be the first to admit that I throw the term around about as loosely as anyone...

Do I consider the 1948 bowman Musial his rookie card? Yes. But in my collection, I have the 1943 m114 as my rookie. Other people may not accept the m114 as a rookie "card", while the '48 Bowman is the most commonly accepted Rookie "card".. Anything from that first commonly accepted rookie or earlier is usually good enough for me... Honestly, the earlier "technically not" cards offer the best bang for the buck from a collectability standpoint..
