2005 Donruss Leather & Lumber Ted Williams Baseball Card

A 2005 Donruss Leather & Lumber baseball trading card featuring Hall of Famer Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox. The card design is characterized by a dark, sophisticated aesthetic featuring a cutout image of Williams in his classic left-handed batting stance. The left side of the card features a vertical 'HITTERS' graphic in an embossed, metallic-grey font over a deep burgundy stripe. The Boston 'B' logo is positioned beneath the text. In the upper right corner, the 'Leather & Lumber' product logo is printed in a refined script font. The player's name, 'TED WILLIAMS', is printed in bronze-colored lettering at the bottom left section of the main image. The card appears to be constructed from thick premium cardstock with a matte finish. It is housed in a protective top-loader or rigid plastic holder, displayed on a clear acrylic stand. Given its dark borders, any chipping or corner wear would be highly visible; however, from the provided image, the corners appear crisp and the surface remains free of major scratches or indentations. The card belongs to a modern boutique set produced during the early 2000s, designed to evoke the materials of the game through textured printing and high-end graphic design.
