Iconic?

Thus spake the Associate Press (at ESPN.com) [emphasis mine].
NEW YORK — The Upper Deck Co. has made a pitch to buy The Topps Co., a bid that would join two iconic baseball card makers that have sold sports memorabilia to generations of fans young and old.
And if you trust wikipedia:
Upper Deck Company, LLC (colloquially as “Upper Deck,” Upper Deck Authenticated, Ltd. in the UK), founded in 1988, is a company primarily known for producing trading cards.
I know it’s only baseball cards — but who is the ad wizard that put together this report? Really. Generations of fans (young and old, natch) since 1988?
