According to Slate.com, the most well-known card of the modern era is the 1989 Upper Deck Ken Griffey Jr., the No. 1 card in the company's inaugural set. "The Griffey is the childhood lust object that everyone's mother saved, arguably the most popular, most widely held baseball card of all time." As Griffey nears the 600-home-run landmark, buyers are snapping up dozens every day on eBay at prices ranging from $15 to $300.
