Description
A color slide of an advertisement for a Wilson A2000 baseball glove featuring a chest-up photograph of Ted Williams. Both of his arms are at a 90-degree angle in front of him, and he is wearing his baseball glove on his left hand. Williams is looking into the glove as he reaches into the glove's webbing with his right hand. He is wearing a Boston Red Sox home uniform and ball cap. The caption reads "Big League Sensation..."
