About the Player
From his Helmar-R319 card: “Babe” has pitched 19 years in the big leagues, compiling 194 wins against 140 losses, and a 2.76 ERA. In the 1909 World Series against the Tigers, Babe pitched three complete games, winning all of them, and letting up only four runs over the 27 innings: one of the greatest World Series performances of all time. 16 years later, at the age of 43, in the ’25 World Series against the Washington Senators, Babe pitched one inning, surrendering two hits but zero runs. Babe hails from Tipton, Indiana. This Hoosier throws from the right side, bats from the left. He stands 5’11” and weighs 185 pounds.
About the Series
There have been baseball themed games almost as long as the game of baseball has been around. The first baseball parlour game, for example, was advertised in the December, 1866 installment of Leslie Magazine—just a year after Lincoln's assassination! Hundreds of games since that date have delighted fans. However, never to our knowledge has anyone married baseball stars with the popular hand puzzles that were so popular from about 1890 to 1965—until now. We think that you'll spend more quality time with these games than much of the rest of your collection. 2.5' diameter, two sided, glass both sides.
27 puzzles of each number have been produced.
