(LOT 111)
1957 Topps #1 Ted Williams PSA 8.5 NM-MT+

PACK-FRESH!!!... Most baseball historians agree that Ted Williams is the greatest hitter who ever lived, justified by his .344 lifetime average, 521 home runs, and formidable stature as being the last player to hit .400 in that magical 1941 season. We are proud to present a Ted Williams 1957 Topps #1 card that personifies his quest of being "second to none". The Kid's representation on this PSA NM/MT+ 8.5 offering is one of only 10 examples at this lofty plateau, and this #1 card in the '57 Topps series presents pristine qualities as a nearly flawless masterpiece. With impeccable clarity and contrast, and near-perfect centering this often condition-sensitive first card in the set is remarkably well-preserved earning an 8.5 NM-MT+ holder from PSA. Sharp edges cap off this Williams from '57 making it for the most meticulous collector focused on assembling the finest 1957 Topps set for potential Set Registry consideration.

MIN BID $2,500
