Bill Lee Autographed 1978 Topps #295 Boston Red Sox Card

Add a classic late-1970s card of one of the most colorful personalities in Boston Red Sox history with this 1978 Topps #295 Bill Lee card, personally autographed by the popular left-hander famously known as Spaceman. The card is correctly cataloged as #295 with the Boston Red Sox in the 726-card 1978 Topps set.

The 1978 Topps design is a favorite among collectors of the era, featuring a clean white border, colorful team-name lettering and the familiar baseball design containing the player's position. Lee's #295 comes from the latter portion of his decade-long tenure with Boston and represents one of his final Topps cards as a member of the Red Sox.

By this point, Lee had already established an impressive rsum in Boston. He earned an American League All-Star selection in 1973 and won exactly 17 games in three consecutive seasons from 1973 through 1975. He was also an important member of the 1975 American League Champion Red Sox, starting Games 2 and 7 of the World Series against Cincinnati.

The season in which this card was issued would prove to be Lee's final year with Boston. He enjoyed a strong rebound in 1978, finishing 10-10 with a 3.46 ERA in 28 appearances and 24 starts. Lee threw eight complete games, including one shutout, while working 177 innings.

Following the season, Lee moved on to the Montreal Expos, ending a memorable 10-year run with the Red Sox. That makes his 1978 Topps #295 particularly appealing within an autographed player collection, as it represents the final season of the Boston portion of his career.
