Lucio, that it is definitely a righteous card. I picked up a lower grade copy years ago and always enjoy checking it out. Such a classic 50s card. Here's a scan of the back of mine, and I have to agree it is one of the best backs on a baseball card.

Both 54 Ted's are among his best issues IMO.

Ted was a bit of a pain in the ass for the card companies and Topps had to jump through hoops to get him to sign (no '52 or '52 card) SO they sold him on the idea of beginning and ending the set. Topps had the rights to him exclusively in '54 which is why Bowman had to pull his card creating the rarity. Fleer, in 1959, got the brilliant idea of selling Ted on the idea that he would be the entire set. Needless to say he was exclusive with Fleer that year!
