This was the card that, to me, defined my collection. Out of all the cards that I had as a kid, this is the one I remembered having the most. I always knew I had a clean Ken Griffey Jr. rookie card. All the kids at school had Jordan’s shoes, but I had Swingman’s!
When I got my cards back, I learned that the rest of the world had the Griffey Jr, rookie. I might grade it just to protect it, but I’ll never let it go.
“You lose, you smile, and you come back the next day. You win, you smile, you come back the next day." Ken Griffey Jr.
