Signed 8" x 10" Vintage Photograph

Original black and white 8" x 10" photo. Signed by Williams in blue marker. Photo of Williams posing in uniform, swinging a bat. Very good photo, with some roughness to upper margin of photo verso, and small closed tear to left edge of photo that has discrete tape repair to verso. With a JSA Letter of Authenticity. Overall, a very pleasing copy. Ted Williams, who played his entire 19-year MLB career with the Red Sox, is considered to be one of, if not the greatest hitter of all time. He was a 2x AL MVP (1946, 1949), 6x AL batting champion, and 4x AL home run leader. Perhaps Williams' greatest claim to fame is that he was the last player to hit over .400 in a season, hitting .406 in 1941. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1966 and was selected for the Major League Baseball All-Century Team in 1999. Off the field, Williams was an avid outdoorsman and world-class fly fisherman; he was inducted into the IGFA Fishing Hall of Fame, making him one of only a handful of professional athletes to be inducted into more than one Hall of Fame. . Signed. Photograph. Very Good.
