TV Shows/Movies featuring Cards....I'll start Hart to Hart (1982)

In the movie 'Mask', the title character was completing a 1955 Topps Brooklyn Dodgers set.

In a more recent movie, 'The Accountant', the title character was sometimes paid for his 'work' with Baseball Cards and he had some pricey ones in a drawer.

Actually, this probably covers it all:

MASK with Rocky and his Dodgers wall is great. I watched that movie over and over as a kid, at first admittedly just because there were cards in it. Rocky talks about the '55 Dodgers but if you look closely, he also has '56 Topps cards as part of that collection. Love the scene with Cher ripping up a card - I think it is a '74 Ron Cey? And then Rocky's prized possession on his wall is obviously the '55 Jackie. If the movie was set in the late 70's that was probably a $15 or so card then. Oh and then his grandpa brings him a '55 Bowman Pee Wee but drives a thumb tack straight thru the card itself...classic.

Pride of the Yankees. One of my all time favorite movies. In the opening a young Lou Gherig is asking some other kids to play baseball. He says he has some baseball cards he will give them for an at bat...one of which is "Babe Ruth? A Rookie!"...classic line from a classic movie. I think they mention Hans Wagner as well, but my memory may be failing me. I'll have to bust out the DVD and re-watch it.
