Another pertinent excerpt from my 'New Collectorisms' thread...
59. Small Photatoes Players who are so easily forgotten about that they appear on rookie cards in multiple years. See also: Knucklestaller - the person at Topps who decided Gaylord Perry should appear on a multi-player rookie card the year after he had his own ‘regular’ card.

How many HOF players have appeared on more than one Rookie Stars card(2 or more players on a card). I can think of Niekro quickly not sure how many more.

1978 Topps can get up to five HOF rookies with Lou Whitaker getting a lot of support.
Same for 1975 Topps with Keith Hernandez getting a lot of support.

Is there another definition for the other players on a HoF'ers multi-player rookie card who don't stick around? For someone like Jeff Schneider and Bob Bonner, who were on Cal Ripken Jr.'s 1982 Topps rookie card but were shortly out of baseball.

Who's the best non HOFer to appear on a HOFer's RC? Off the top of my head I would say Koosman?

The answer would have been Alan Trammell until a few years ago. |

181. Yukstaposition (Also Ron Tompgrins, Jerry Amuseman, Bill Dene-Hee-Hee, Al Weiscrack or Ron Slay) How some people try to get laughs by referring to the Johnny Bench, Nolan Ryan, Tom Seaver, Pete Rose, or Mike Schmidt rookie cards by using one-of-the-other-players-pictured’s names instead. 229. Scrubbish Rookie cards of players that never made it big appearing in the same set with the same layout as other valuable, much sought after rookie cards.

Ken McMullen's rookie card (1963 Topps #537) is outrageously expensive, and it doesn't even have a Hall of Famer on it!

Some RC trivia.
Steve Carlton -- only postwar HOF player with no second year card, I think. Tony Larussa and Lou Piniella -- multiyear gap between rookie and second year cards. Bobby Cox -- RC as a player is his ONLY player card (other than earlier Venezuelan).
