(LOT 270)
1954 Topps #250 Ted Williams SGC 88 NM/MT 8
LAST CARD IN SET!!! Ted William's ultimate dream of being our National Pastime's greatest hitter ever became a reality with most baseball experts labeling the "Splendid Splinter" the finest batter who ever stepped into a batter's box! The 1954 Topps #250 issue included two images, a larger sized color portrait pose, and a smaller black & white batting illustration. A pristine like perimeter exhibits razor sharp edging and four scintillating square corners, and the verso's vivid text is affixed to a green, red and pink hued ultra-clean surface. This remarkable 64-year old cardboard gem has miraculously defied "father time", retaining virtually all of its original factory issued print qualities. If this card was better centered it would be in a 9 or higher holder. A virtual perfect testament to Ted William's unbridled legacy as baseball's greatest batsmen ever!
