The true Rookie Card of Sam Thompson originates from the 1886 Tomlinson Studio Cabinets series. Another popular early card choice for Sam Thompson would have to be the 1887-90 Old Judge tobacco issue. In addition, another Thompson card was also produced in 1887, the Buchner Gold Coin tobacco issue. Although it is extremely scarce, an 1887 Gypsy Queen card depicting Thompson also exists. Subsequently, a very popular Old Judge Cabinets card picturing Thompson was issued during the 1888-89 time frame.
