Ted Williams
Ted Williams was always one of my favorite guys. I acquired all these Ted Williams cards (and many more) in the early-to mid-1980's.
Williams cards were relatively inexpensive back then (compared to other super stars....Ruth, DiMaggio, Mantle, Jackie Robinson, etc.). How inexpensive....here are some typical prices for these cards (Ex/Mt) during that period: 1941 PLAY BALL = $40 1949 LEAF = $25 1950 BOWMAN = $40 1951 BOWMAN = $30 1954 BOWMAN = $250 1939 Exhibit = $20 1959 FLEER set (incl. #68 card) = $100 I asked a Boston dealer at a BB card Show why Williams' cards were relatively inexpensive ? His reply was two-fold. Boston collectors are the biggest "cheapskates". And, many of them never really appreciated Ted Williams, anyhow.      . .    TED Z T206 Reference .

If anyone wants to sell me a strong 58 with great color that doesn't have that washed out, slightly blurry look, I'm glad to add to these.
