You have it listed as a 1980 Larry Bird Rookie card. Bird was drafted in 78 and began his NBA reign in 79. Grew up in MA. and followed Celtics since I knew what basketball was. No biggie. Just thought you should know so no one gets upset with you. People can be rude for little reason. :) Have a great day.

Pomper many players didn't receive rookie cards right away
Most famous jordan his rookie card true rookie is 86 fleer 57 but he came in 84 ...plenty of players got rookies later Montana ..Marino big stars then you even got strike years recently that produce double RC class ..several bird cards like his RC w MJ and think Dr J off top of my head but they perforated the cards like lebron matrix cards some people made the one card into 3 ..even on these cards there's several versions of it
Usually even eBay just search bird rookie and you'll see Chris is right about bird rookie card ...so get it right collector lol just kiddin man
It's confusing w cards but so many examples of year a players drafted and his TRUE ROOKIE being year or 2 later ...technically MJ has earlier cards than 86 fleer but when you hear Jordan RC it's meaning 86 fleer ..not earlier star or miller lite ..Gatorade and Olympics even though those are rookies sometimes xrc or collectors call them differently
Hope that helps
Cardboard connection is cool place to get checklist and also shows you variation checklist so the cards that aren't sp# but have say different color jersey or I just hit Cobb were one pic visor other no visor ...wierd things but variation generally are 1:250 or even more and much more valuable ..got off subject but I'm young in collecting and wish I had info passed down ...,happy holidays all and nice card Chris

Richard, I've Collected as a kid who knew nothing, and even though I have many thousands of cards today, just really got back into it seriously about a year ago, I did not know that and it sure clears up a lot of confusion on my part. I figure pointing something out can go three ways. One is someone being an obnoxious know it all. Two is someone just correcting the record in a friendly manner, and finally, getting a valuable lesson. The last two are the best case scenerios and I got both. My lucky day. Lol. Thanks a bunch for the much needed and appreciated lesson.
