1954 Bowman Ted Williams?

[Gradedcardman]

The first scarce card I ever owned. 25 cents at a local yard sale.

Sorry Leon I guess I was never that good at history.

Williams was a pre war player, to it's half and half

Hi Adam,

I know what you mean...I grew up in the hobby thinking of this card as "scarce".

Of course we all now realize these cards are far from scarce. PSA alone has graded 778 of the '54 Bowman Williams. A far cry from scarce. A heckuva lot fewer than the 2200 Mantles they have graded from the same set though.

Cheers,
Blair

I am wondering if I should sell mine while the price is still high and before everyone realizes it's not very rare.

I'll trade you for some scarce 1989 Upper Deck Griffey Jr. Rookies if you want to get that common card out of your collection.

I already have the UD Griffey.
