Look at all the modern sets with the subsets, numbered versions, as well as the auto and game used variants within them that all get the RC designation today. So if that is the case with today's sets, why shouldn't it also apply to a 1960 Topps set, right?

I agree. I mean you can still have a hierarchy, with the non-subset McCovey being the primary RC or whatever.

When dealing with the post-war vintage Topps/Bowman sets, whenever you have a base set rookie card, any subset/team card of that same player is never considered a rookie card.

No reason that thinking can't evolve to be in line with today's designations though.

Of course you mean it is your opinion, right? I have read many different opinions on this thread as to what a rookie card is and it seems like this will always be an individual choice at the end of the day.
