I would rate Ted Williams Topps cards as being underrated relative to his status. Those Williams cards typically sell for the same or less than some of his HOF counterparts like Aaron, Mays, Clemente, and, of course, Mantle. I don't know about his WAR, but his OPS is second only to Babe Ruth, and 35 points higher than the Iron Horse, Lou Gehrig. There's a good example on eBay right now featuring a '56 Topps Williams and a '56 Topps Jackie Robinson - same seller, same grade, same grading company, and the ending times of both listings are only 2 minutes apart. Yet Jackie is beating Ted by about $40, and likely will have a higher final bid as well.
