I want to pick up the best rookie or minor league card for Jim Thome, can anyone help me to figure out which one is the rarest?

I think Thome is super underrated and a future 1st ballot HOFer, not really sure why his stuff isn't selling that much, any thoughts?

    His best MLB rookie is 1991 Bowman. Not sure about his Minor League issues. His rookie cards don't sell well, in part, because there were just too darn many made. Not nearly enough demand for the supply.
    "My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. Our childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When we were insolent we were placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds - pretty standard really."

    i think this might be his earliest minor league team set from 1990 procards, any idea the print run for these?

    I'd say that 1990 pro cards is probably his earliest "real card" you'll find. If it were me, that's the way I'd go.

    I have his 1991 Classic Best minor league card autographed. I'll try to find it and scan it here.
