PSA has never graded the 1955 Hocus Focus. Yes, it certainly exists, just not graded yet by PSA.

Dan---same photo was used in 55 and 56. Both sets are pretty grim, but in my experience by far the toughest issued ( as opposed to unissued test sets) Topps sets to complete. Another tough Topps quest would be to get all the colored line variants on his 1956 cards

Default Rare Ted Williams stuff
Here's the rare #68 card (Ted signs for 1959) in my set. Is this 4+ card panel unique ? Or, has anyone else seen an original uncut 1959 Fleer sheet (or partial sheet) ?





A bit of trivia here...… in 1952, Ted took flight training at the Willow Grove Naval Air Base, which is only a 20-minute drive from my house.

Default Wanna play?
Here is a 1970 Ted Williams - Boston Red Sox, sillisculpt figure by Russ & Wallace Berrie. For those that may not be familiar with these, during the 1960's and 1970's, sillisculpt figures by the Berries and by Paula were quite popular - hundreds of different ones were produced. Although Ted Williams' name is not stated anywhere on this figure, surely it was intended to represent Ted Williams because of the "B" on the baseball cap and the number "9" on the back of the figure's shirt.

Shameless plug: I have a another example of this sillisculpt that I will be listing on eBay this weekend. Unfortunately, its bat has broken off and disappeared, but could be replaced with a similar size bat from a toy baseball figure.

Looks like the '55 wasn't part of perforated sheet.

We should keep this thread on the first two pages for the remainder of 2019. Alright, who's with me?

Will start with a few items today to bring it to the top.

Here are two different 1946-1947 W603 Sports Exchange All Star Pictures of Ted Williams

Thought I would post this as these are confused often (even by the TPGs; I have a 1941 encased by BVG that is listed as a 1940 on the flip).

The Boston Red Sox often used the same photos for their team Photo Packs. These two below represent the 1940 and 1941 Boston Photo Pack Ted Williams. The KEY difference between the two are the size of the signature; 1940 being a small signature (true for the entire pack of 25 players) and the 1941 being a large signature (also true for the entire pack).

I've been looking for that top one for a while. Are there fewer than the bottom one?

Always love your stuff!

I have the one with the bio info on the bottom, but can't find the one with the blank lines.
