Ted ZanidakisWell, there is a very interesting pattern in the BB card sets primarily issued during the 1950's, that Stan Musial and Ted Williams
appeared in.
Wayne Grove mentioned in an earlier post here regarding Musial's absence in many sets....that Musial.."replied that they did not
want to pay him anymore than they paid anyone else".
My guess in many instances, is that "anyone else" was Ted Williams......this is somewhat implied in their alternate appearance in
many of the following sets.
MUSIAL and WILLIAMS together.....
1947 Homogenized Bond Bread
1949 Leaf
