Teddy Ballgame
Added another Williams piece to the collection this month... Saw a cool piece on eBay, and got it at a pretty darned good price...the original display had the ap mounted to what I thought was a piece construction paper... There was an interesting note on the paper which I pretty much discounted until i disassembled it. It turns out that it was a very brittle scrapbook page. The reverse had 3 newspaper clips (one dated to 49). Pretty cool account of how a young fan, got ted to sign!
Display also included a snapshot of ted in his car (perhaps the same day?)
I gave my framer what was salvaged from the page, and he was able to craft this beauty.
