1939 Play Ball R334 #92 Ted Williams Rookie PSA 8 NM-MT
THE KID'S PSA 8 ROOKIE!!! One of the most coveted rookie marvels is the 1939 Play Ball #92 Ted Williams, presented here in an outstanding PSA 8 NM-MT holder and bested by only fourteen examples. Most baseball historians agree that Williams is one of the finest hitters, as substantiated by his .344 lifetime average, 521 HRs, nearly 2,000 RBIs, and the second highest slugging percentage ever. Similar to Ted's batting exploits are the brilliant aesthetics of this card, which reveals a breathtaking black and white batting pose, depicting crystal-clear clarity and near-perfect contrast. Clean white borders frame the classic image that, in typical fashion, is somewhat skewed, favoring the upper right edges. Pack-fresh surfaces end at razor-sharp edges and pinpoint corners, and the verso's bold black print registration is impeccable. Rookie cards have been exploding in value, with PSA 8 Ted Williams reaching pricing points of $40K-$56K over the past several years. This PSA 8 marvel has defied the past 84 years by retaining a majority of its original factory-issued qualities. This extraordinary offering stands alongside the most significant rookie cards, with its iconic stature synonymous with the Kid's unequivocal standing as our national pastime's best batsman!
