What's a good "first" vintage set to collect?

Like Dave mentioned, this would make a good trial run for collecting vintage sets.

A couple of additional points about this set--the cards are as inexpensive as 1930's issues get, have pretty decent black and white photos, and if you wanted to you could complete it in under a month, as they are readily available.

Great card. Congrats...

Does anyone have a list of the Exhibit cards that would (reasonably) be considered "rookie" cards. I know the 1925 Gehrig, but know there are others.

Thanks!
