Default 1959 Fleer Ted Williams Set

Noticed a lot of posts about this awesome set in another thread. So figured I would start a thread just for them. I stole this set from a fellow member a couple years ago. Didn't really steal it but got an amazing price. The cards are all in amazing condition. The Ted Signs card is the only one with any problems. There is a very small bump in the card stock and it caused a small print error in that area during the printing process.

Here is my set, show yours.

Very nice!

Like I mentioned in the other post, wish I had of purchased the same set when I had the opportunity!

Just see a bunch on E-Bay but unfortunately, the seller doesn't ship to Canada.

I love this set and just finished it, but most of mine isn't scanned and I don't feel like scanning tonight. Here are the scans I already had:

I bought 10-15 EXish cards from this set on COMC for between $3-5 each. And you don't have to ship them individually... so that would be my recommendation if you're looking to put this set together from your living room, Irv.

Default 1959 Ted Williams Fleer set

In the early 1980's, you could buy a near mint set (including card #68) for about $100. Being a Ted Williams fan, I acquired several of these sets.

T'was a great investment......and, some very interesting reading of Ted's life. Especially, the cards related to his Military service.


Here's a 6-card panel from an uncut sheet with the #68 card on it.
