By iconic I mean most noticeable or recognized by the population on whole- not most valuable, not best looking, but the image that would represent baseball cards if only one could be chosen for a time capsule or to show an alien, or something.

My order is:

1. T206 Wagner
2. 1952 Topps Mantle
3. T206 red Cobb portrait
4. 1933 Ruth #144
5. 1914 Cracker Jack Jackson

I think 1954 Topps Aaron, 1968 Nolan Ryan, 1989 UD Griffey, and 1987 (I think) Billy Ripken Fuck Face card could all be honorable mention

I have all 5 of those. So hard to choose. Just kidding.
