Description

A color slide of a baseball card from the 1959 Fleer Ted Williams set. Card number 40 in the set shows four images of Williams crashing into Fenway Park's green monster as he fields a baseball. The upper left image shows him running toward the wall with his gloved left hand in the air. The upper right image shows him with both arms extending toward the wall as he braces for impact. The lower left image shows him standing against the wall with his back visible. He is looking down, possibly at the baseball. The lower right image shows him throwing the baseball he is holding behind him in his right hand. The caption on the bottom of the baseball card reads, "1950 - Ted Crashes Into Wall."
