Minor league cards

[Cubanball]

Phil, I agree with you the PCL sets are great cards with many first cards of great ballplayers. I personally love the Zeenuts cards. On the question of what is a rookie card it is all about semantics. You did a superb job in your book in highlighting the true rookie cards for hall of famers. Anyone more interested in this subject I highly recommend Phil's book picturing the true rookie cards for hall of famers from the four major sports. It's available on eBay or contact Phil.

I find that many collectors have gravitated towards the “earliest” cards rather than “rookie” cards. As noted by Phil, many Old Judges picture players from minor league clubs, so would be good examples of minor league cards that are more highly sought vs. a true “rookie” card for these players.

Not much more to add other than a few of my favorite “pre-war pre-rookies”.
