What you have is referred to as a news service photo, press photo or a wire photo, released or used by a local newspaper. A wire photo is a term for sending pictures by either telegraph or telephone. Wire photo's are commonly used by news agencies such as the associated press. These wire photos are distributed across the country for use by other news media.
Press photos are commonly stamped on the back with the newspapers name, photographer, and sometimes the caption that is to be used with the photo. If the photo was used and filed it might also include a copy of the news item it was published on or and might have editing marks for cropping on the front.
Press photos are very collectible and sought after by collectors. Photo quality, subject, composition, and appeal will all effect the value. Ted Williams is as good a subject as you can get. and press photos with Ted Williams as the subject could sell anywhere from $30.-$200. or more. Many other subject related factors will effect the value such as if the photo was taken during the game, an "action shot", posed for the picture, other players in the photo, and the ballpark it was taken in could also effect the value.
Here are some results from recent actions:
TED WILLIAMS Returns to Fenway At-BAT - $103.50
1972 News Service Photo issued by United Press
("Jimmy Fund Night" Williams hit a HR)
1957 News Photo (United Press) TED WILLIAMS Red Sox with bat - $90.00
1955 News Service Photo / United Press depicting a Rare image of Ted Williams watching a game from the "Green Monster" - $26.02
Because it is a Ted Williams press photo the Boston Globe Newspaper would be most desirable. I am not familiar with the name Paul J Maguire but as a photographer or reporter for the Boston Globe could add value as well.
Paul J "PJ" Maguire was the chief of sports Photography for the Boston Globe back in the day. He's my Grandfather and he was a great man.
