Ken Griffey Jr. is one of the most collected names in baseball memorabilia, known to fans as "The Kid" during his years with the Seattle Mariners and Cincinnati Reds. His rookie cards and signed pieces remain a favorite target for collectors building a baseball archive, since he spans both the late-1980s rookie card boom and the jersey and autograph market that followed.
This collection includes graded rookie cards such as the 1989 Upper Deck, 1989 Score Traded, and 1989 Topps Traded issues, several certified PSA 9 and PSA 10, along with a PSA-graded pairing of his 1986 and 1989 Topps rookie cards. Beyond cardboard, there is a Russell Athletic Reds jersey numbered 30, an autographed 8x10 photo, and a framed, JSA-authenticated Sports Illustrated poster signed by Griffey. Buyers should check the grading company and grade on each card, the authentication service on signed pieces, and the jersey's stitched numbering before purchase.
