[odditycards]

Here are the cards Beckett says fall into the "RC" definition:
1986-87 Fleer #57
1994 Collector's Choice #661
1994 Fun Pack #170
1994 Upper Deck #19

Technically, they are correct, but people that collect Topps baseball are already familiar with this question. With only one company allowed to produce baseball cards, how can a player have 10+ RCs? Until the definition changes, we will be dealing with this. I like the idea that each company can put out one RC per player. I do not like this "1 RC per set" notion. If a company has 10+ sets under its name and produces 10+ RCs, they become a pain to collect...and not because they are scarce and worth anything.

I agree. Then you get into the question of all the variations per set.
base, auto, jersey, jersey/auto, patch, patch/auto, base/auto, dual jersey, dual/auto, dual patch, dual patch/auto.......
Then each of those have different "levels" of serial numbering...
/999, /499, /199, /99, /49, /25, /10, /5, /1
My goodness...out of one product a player might have over 100 "RC-cards". Then multiply that by the 10+ products that come out??
Um...something is wrong.
Bring back the olden days when there was one or two RC cards!
