I have been looking at Ted Williams baseball cards a lot lately and looking to purchase one soon. The 1939 rookie is a little out of price range unfortunately, I believe the next two cards in which I am particularly interested in is the 1941 play ball vs the 1954 bowman. This has been a hard decision for me just looking for some advice. Also, all other opinions are greatly appreciated! Thank you!

I settled for a very slightly trimmed rookie.

Also my choice as Ted`s best looking card. With the right condition the "48" image just pops out at you. Take your time , you should have a decent supply to make a purchase from.

Aesthetically speaking I prefer the 1955 and 1956 Tops versions.

Another good option is to look for photos. Here's my 1939 Rc era photo of a young Ted.
