What makes a rookie card
Topps: "Rookie cards refer to players' first cards once they make their Major League debut." and "In most cases, rookie cards are stamped with some kind of designation (e.g. "RC") on the front or back" (Topps Ripped, read ). This list follows the Rookie tag Topps prints on each checklist line; see the rookie card glossary entry.
