Ted Williams' Personal Collection Goes to Auction

For the first time ever, items from the personal collection of baseball legend Ted Williams are up for sale. The auction, scheduled for April 28th at Boston’s Fenway Park and conducted by Hunt Auctions , has items from one of the most iconic and complicated lives in American history. The Red Sox slugger is possibly the greatest hitter who ever lived, a legendary fisherman, and a fighter pilot in the Korean War, but an American enigma since he was cryogenically frozen after his death in 2002.
