I believe that the 'most iconic player ever' based on his effect on and continued status in the hobby is Mickey Mantle.
Besides being a great player, his career occurred as the Television Age exploded and he played for the best known team from the largest city.
IMHO, he is the gold standard...even Ruth lags behind.
