About the Player
A short bio from the Boston Garter Game of the Century card back: Muscular first baseman Jimmie Fox of the Philadelphia A’s is the most menacing batter in all of baseball. Called “the right-handed Babe Ruth” Foxx not only hits home runs in bunches, he also hits them almost clean out of the ballpark. Last year, after a mild slump in 1931, he almost equaled Ruth’s famous record by bashing 58 four baggers to go along with his .364 batting average and 169 runs knocked in. Jimmie is a genial soul and sociable guy, but facing him in the Game of the Century will be no picnic for any NL hurler.
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.
