Yeah, not sure why anyone would pay much of a premium for it.

Also, as someone else asked.. how does Beckett know it's a 1/1? I guess you submit it with some proof

Topps sent it to them directly to declare it a 1/1 to give out for the redemption.

1/1 what? There's nothing special about this card. It is like any other 1955 Topps Ted Williams.

Guys, there was a Topps product that carried redemptions for different cards on their Top 150 list. The person who pulled the redemption card for Ted Williams would have received this slabbed card in return. The 1/1 refers to the fact that it was the card that was redeemed from the product. This was actually a pretty elegant way to do this promotion because the original card is preserved and the only stamping or notation is on the flip and not on the card itself.

QED

Every single thing under the sun could be claimed to be a singular one of one.

To solidify the importance of this particular post, I'm going to add a declaration to the lower left for the collecting community.
