About the Player
Ty Cobb says: “The first time I saw 'Eddie' Collins play, which was in 1906, when he was appearing with the Athletics under the name of 'Eddie' Sullivan and was still in college, he did not look like a hitter. To-day he is probably the most dangerous in baseball, as his work in the 1913 world's series showed. I consider him to be far more valuable to a team than Jackson or even Baker.”
About the Series
The Helmar H813-4 Boston Garter series consists of 45 cards, and the design was inspired by one of the most beautiful baseball card sets of all time, the 1912 Boston Garters. The originals showed the sock garters; the Helmar versions instead show interesting scenes in the background or period detail such as a 1912-era telephone. Each card is large at 8.5' x 4.25' and gorgeous. Produced in 2014. In the fall of 2021 the series was extended with a round, 2.5' dexterity hand puzzle made to match each earlier card in the series. Each hand puzzle consitutes a game piece that includes three dice with outcomes detailed on the puzzle's backs. Two new players were introduced within the series extension, #47 (Lazzeri) and #81 (Cravath). Additionally, the last two puzzles feature John McGraw in multi-player illustrations. The back of #83 features a checklist.
