I am very fond of the 1906 Sporting Life postcard set of 16 teams and feel that since the players are each represented by a recognizable portrait and are individually identified that it is much more substantial than a 1967 team card, but I certainly understand why others would disagree.
I completely agree with you there, Kevin. It's a lot like coin collcectors preferring the sheer size of double eagles as opposed to more dime-like gold dollars, or why Morgan silver dollars have proven popular. Bigger is better, and the size of the Cobb portrait postcard gives it a totlally different feel than the '67 Topps Mets team picture. It is simply a great card, classified as rookie or not.

May all the collecting winds be at your back, sailing you right to your goals,

Larry
