1955 Topps #2 Ted Williams PSA 8 NM-MT
TEDDY BALLGAME BLAZER!!! Ted Williams heroic stints in two wars as well as his arguable status as baseball's greatest hitter ever have earned Teddy Ballgame iconic stature second to none. This Boston Red Sox legend, via his myriad of unparalleled hitting achievements and fighter pilot war accomplishments, captivated a country and stands as the true embodiment of an American hero. One of his most popular baseball cards is the 1955 Topps #2 subject, presented here in an outstanding PSA 8 holder and bested by only 13 PSA examples. Two sparkling Williams images grace the card (portrait and batting), with the nearflawless pictures set against a brilliant yellow and white gradient background. The well-centered image reveals only a slight favoritism towards the upper left edges, and a small soiling spot is affixed to the lower left border. One of the Kid's most popular cards, many of its pack-fresh aesthetics justify the hallowed assessment!
