Rookie Cards on Vintage Cards
Posted By: Eric B
I am disappointed that vintage cards collectors are concerned about finding the "rookie" cards of pre-war players. It was the main reason I was turned off by the shiny crap of the late 70's and early 80's when I was still young (although that turned out to be a good thing) and turned my attention to vintage baseball and eventually vintage non-sports. |

I totally agree eric. Peter based on many of your comments I cannot help but feel that you are more concerned with money that baseball history. |

I think there is a significant difference between modern and vintage rookie cards. Modern cards are not scarce and have no intrinsic value. The rookie cards of modern players are mostly hyped and usually plummet when a player falls out of popularity. |

Only I could have picked such a bad example. How about this. My 1972 high number Steve Garvey's got overshadowed by the common 1971 Rookie card. |

It really depends on what you collect. For example, a large portion of my collection includes baseball record holders. For those with lifetime records, one way to portray that is to display his first big league card and one from his last season. |

Well one way to look at it would be that to have Pete only only a fourth of the card is better than having him on all of a card. Having him not on the card at all would be best. |

If a collector wants to collect pre-war rookies in Major League uniforms, I see absolutely nothing worng with that. |

I dont even pay attention to whether a card is a players rc until we get into the 1940's era or later. And its still just a novelty |
