I'd go with the T206 Wags because it was the first card I read about that seemed to pay attention to the value of cards when I was a kid. It seemed that just about any card could have been had 5 decades ago, but Wags was the card that was way out there in the way of attainability. However, the KGB Chicken card has got to be a close second. When he was the KGB Chicken, Ted would go to concerts and do all kinds of funny and outrageous stuff. His heyday of craziness was in the 80s. Total show to watch him at concerts and sporting events.
52T Mantle is very iconic, but when I think of a card that has put the hobby on the map, I think Wags.
