Add a beautiful premium tribute to one of baseball's most memorable World Series with this 2003 Topps Tribute World Series #13 Bill Lee card, personally autographed by the former Boston Red Sox All-Star known throughout baseball as The Spaceman.

The 2003 Topps Tribute World Series Edition was a premium 150-card release devoted to players and personalities connected to World Series history. Bill Lee is correctly cataloged as card #13, with his card commemorating his role with the 1975 Boston Red Sox. The set's checklist is loaded with stars and Hall of Famers from different eras, making Lee's inclusion a fitting recognition of his connection to one of the most famous Fall Classics ever played.

Lee entered the 1975 postseason after another workhorse season for Boston. He went 17-9 with a 3.95 ERA, making 34 starts and throwing 260 innings with 17 complete games and four shutouts. It was his third consecutive 17-win season for the Red Sox.

His greatest connection to the 1975 season came in the legendary World Series against Cincinnati's Big Red Machine. Lee was given two starts and pitched extremely well, recording a 3.14 ERA across 14 innings while allowing only 12 hits and three walks.

Lee started Game 2 at Fenway Park and delivered eight strong innings, allowing only two runs on five hits. He returned for the decisive Game 7, holding Cincinnati scoreless through five innings before the Reds rallied. Boston ultimately lost the unforgettable series four games to three.

Unlike Lee's vintage Topps, Hostess, O-Pee-Chee and other contemporary playing-era cards, this Topps Tribute issue was specifically designed to celebrate his 1975 World Series appearance. Its premium construction and historical theme make it an especially attractive modern card to have personally signed.
