THE HEADING IN THE CATALOG IS INCORRECT. THIS IS NOW THE 4TH RATED SET ON THE PSA REGISTRY - NOT THE 9TH
Offered is a sterling compilation of the coveted and classic 1959 Fleer Ted Williams set. Only an individual as universally accomplished and charismatic as Ted Williams could warrant his own card series devoted entirely to his life and prolific Hall of Fame baseball career. Its 80 cards are widely pursued by collectors today who revel in its satisfying understated colors and its revealing personal glimpses of the game's great hitter.
This evenly matched 1959 Fleer Ted Williams set includes all but 1 card graded MINT PSA 9 or better. The major keys among the 78 of 80 perfect looking MINT PSA 9's are: #2 Teds Idol (Babe Ruth) 9 1937 - First Step to the Majors (Eddie Collins) 11 First spring Training (Jimmie Foxx) 17 How Ted Hit .400 39 1950 - Great Start (Joe Cronin/Eddie Collins) 63 Ted's All-Star record 67 Two Famous Fishermen (Sam Snead) 68 Jan. 23 1959 - Ted Signs For 1959 70 Ted Williams & Jim Thorpe 75 William's Value to Red Sox (Babe Ruth/Eddie Collins) 80 Ted's Goals for 1959.
