Wilson Franks Ted Williams
 
I need some guidance. I bought a Wilson Franks Ted Williams card graded a 1 by BVG 1 with a line on the label that says “cut from advertising sheet”. It is a little larger than regular issue card. Has anyone ever seen one like this? Any idea what value is?

Your card was likely cut from one of these sheets:

uncut sheets of this set have also sold, but I am not sure if this is simply an advertising sheet with the borders cut down:

Regarding value, your Ted Williams card definitely has value to a collector, but I don't think it would be nearly the same as an actual Wilson Franks Ted Williams card that was cut at the factory and issued with hot dogs.

Does the back of your card have all the stats the same as a normal Wilson Franks card?

Looks identical to original card

Thank you
 
I appreciate the information. If I can ever figure out how to post a picture of the card I’ll do so

I'd bet your card is a bit larger because it contains parts of the borders of its neighbors from the original sheet.
