Some may argue it is the 1909 T-206 Wagner

Others may say it is the 1952 Topps Mantle rookie

Still more may claim it is the 1990 Fleer Jose Uribe

But no, these are all wrong.

May I present to you the objectively greatest card ever produced and released in a baseball card set -- A pickel.

You have persuaded me from the Wagner to thy great pickle card. Thou shall be immortalized. Well done. ------------------------------- Thanks - TwinKiller. (Luke)

The next one I get to complete a set. And then one after that, and then... ------------------------------- Tired and trembling I am descending, will I have to stay here and live this life again?

I'd go with the 1989 Fleer Billy Ripken F* Face card.

This one's got a leg up on anything else...

It's conceptually a retro card produced in the 90s with 80s short shorts.
