Recent pickup... 1954 Ted Williams

I absolutely LOVE this PSA 1! Card is beautiful except for tiny pinhole above the "d" in outfield. Eye appeal on thie card is fantastic. Opinions? Compared to all the other PSA 1's I have see of this card, this one trumps all of them.

    It will be hard to be that PSA 1 Ted Williams. Nice score. Where did you get it? Ebay or some place else?

    Pinholes should be qualifiers (PSA 7 PH).

    Outstanding snag. One of my favorite cards of All-Time. Definitely on my Top 100 List. Classic.

    Gotta LOVE cards with pinholes. IMO, pinholes are a card collectors best friend! AWESOME CARD! AMAZING COLOR.
    STAY HEALTHY!

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    Picked it up on the Net54 boards...paid $135 and feel it was a good deal at that price for all the great attributes of the card. .... too bad PSA didn't have a PH qualifier! image

    Best looking pinhole card I have ever saw! Nice scan too. My pin hole cards also happen to look like WC's(wallet card),BS(bicycle spokes) and games my brother and I made up(crap).

    Stunning card, those '54 Ted Williams are absolutely awesome, the only other Teddy Ballgame that comes close is the Wilsons Franks card.

    My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

    Awesome card! There are definitely some great deals to be had on cards with outstanding eye appeal and a minor, fatal flaw like a surface wrinkle or this pinhole. The only problem is these examples are so hard to come by. A great find!
