Chris rattles off his 10 most iconic cards, with some honorables mentioned. For those not wanting to watch the video (22 minutes, ), here is the list:

10. 1980-81 Topps basketball Bird/Johnson
9. 1979-80 OPC Gretzky
8. 1933 Goudey Ruth (Yellow)
7. 2003-4 Topps Chrome L. James
6. 2000 Playoff Contenders Brady
5. 1948 Leaf Jackie Robinson
4. 1989 UD Griffey
3. 1909 T206 Wagner
2. 1986 Fleer Jordan
1. 1952 Topps Mantle


Some initial thoughts.

1. I was surprised that there are only around 1600 graded Yellow Ruths (PSA SGC and BVG). I would have thought there was more.
2. There are 135,000 graded UD Griffeys…. What?!?!?
3. I am okay with the list for the most part. Maybe take out one card and add in the 1965 Topps Namath.

What are your thoughts?
My immediate thoughts are that Namath is probably the most overrated sports figure of all time. He had more interceptions than touchdowns.

But in his unique case, that's beside the point.

The 89 Topps Update Randy Kutcher deserves at least an honorable mention.
