Bright, well-centered example of "Cotton Top" Turner, so-called for his blond hair. He spent considerable time with Cleveland, long enough to better even the legendary Nap Lajoie in total appearances! Historians credit Terry with either inventing or popularizing the headfirst slide, depending how you view invention and innovation at the MLB level.

The PSA EX 5 grade reflects its strong, even image, with good surface quality on front and reverse. According to the population report, this places it in the top quarter of graded Turner examples. Evenly touched corners and a slight shift in its yellow ink pass are all that hold it back from something higher!
