The "Best Wishes, Splendid Splinter, Ted Williams" autograph just about knocks us out. The "Ted Williams the Kid" floors us for good. This playful collection of bats with different Williams signatures has enough to keep the autograph hound in Sharpie heaven. Four sticks, four distinct inscriptions. Hey, Williams never hit the same every time up. Why sign the same? Notice how the Hall of Famer never connects the W to the "i" in his last name. Analyze that. The two other signatures on the Louisville Sluggers read "Ted Williams '9' " and simply "Ted Williams." Even the markers aren't the same. Green on one, black on one, blue on two. But all hit the sweet spot in quality. Extra points for the beatific No. 9 hologram on the bat bearing "the kid."
