The whole saga of John Henry Williams is positively Shakespearean. But my God, the guy was handsome! I got to hang with him a little at the '69 Senators reunion show at Chantilly in 1998 and he took my copy of the Glory of Their Times audio set up to the stage where his dad was signing and gave it to him, and Ted nodded approvingly. That, and having dinner about ten feet away from the head table at the banquet for the players the night before was as close as I ever got to meeting Ted Williams, sadly.
