As per his SABR bio https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/adonis-terry/
Dubbed “Adonis” for his heavenly appearance, Terry’s good looks, gentlemanly manner, and aversion to alcohol gave him a charisma that appealed to many in an era when rough and bawdy ballplayers were commonplace. That appeal accentuated his successes on the diamond, making him a hero in Brooklyn and popular wherever he played. As the New York Herald put it after one triumph, “Terry captivated the hearts of the girls and made the other handsome men present envious". |

Formal attire
This topic seems to come up a couple times a year, enjoy it because it reminds me that these sports "gods" deep down are really just like us. Have a few favs, the 1`s a very early Bobby Orr( I now I'm prejudice) THE great One. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...b9cfd289_c.jpgTHE Great One, Bobby Orr, 1968 period autoed/snapper by Hugh Murphy, on Flickr
The second, my favorite player Joe Jackson. Pictured her in his biggest moment, minutes prior to confessing to Cook county Grand jury that yes "we took monies from the gamblers" 9/20/20. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...f9daf65d_c.jpgSeptember, 28`th 1920, Jackson Type 1 Photo by Hugh Murphy, on Flickr |

Perfect for the occasion.. we shall see if anyone knows who it is. Not a mainstream player but appears in some turn of the century sets.

One more card and a photo probably after the start of WWII given the light post in the background. Still, the two guys were great before, during and after WWII.
