gman, it think the white airbrush/retouch was a simple device from keeping it from blending into the background...I actually think that is one of the things I find most attractive about the card.

The Wilson Franks would be my top choice, but that card is pricey, even in low grade. So I'd say it's a toss up between '50 Bowman and '54 Topps #1 or #250 (The '54 Topps #250 has one of the coolest backs found on a card, ever
 )...

I am a big fan of the 1959 Fleer Ted Williams set. Great photos and not too costly on the budget. The Number 2 with Babe and #70 with Thorpe are my Favorite.
 Even the Wrappers are pretty Cool!

I've always liked both of the 1954 Topps.

Having put together the complete '54 Bowman set as a kid (w/out even knowing the #66 Ted existed at the time), I finally decided to add Ted about 3 yrs ago to really finish off my set.
Needless to say it has become my favorite Williams.
