1948 Leaf #3 Bulldog Turner Red Background Rookie PSA 9 MINT
STANDS ALONE!!! Bulldog Turner dominated line play from the center position in a fashion previously unseen in professional football. Blessed with halfback speed and incredible strength, Turner moved inside linemen aside like little puppets. Turner's 1948 Leaf stands tall as a classic and iconic image of a bygone football era, where two-way players dominated the gridiron, leather helmets without facemasks were considered protection and the majority of the game's greats played without fear. The explosive red background behind the Chicago great seemingly catapults Turner forward, where perfectly registered indigo and yellow's bring the Hall of Famer's uniform to life in vibrant form. Every surface area of this Canton-worthy relic appears as untouched and new as the day it emerged from its pack over 62 years ago. Of the over 9,000 examples from the 1948 Leaf football set graded by PSA, only 90 cards have ever been deemed MINT 9. As fewer high-grade offerings from this wonderfully popular and prized set make their way to market, special consideration should be given to this card. MINT 9, this ones for you. Registry Set Dream Card!!!
