About the Player

The short bio from the Helmar-R319 card back: Now here’s a fella that would chew a first baseman’s arm off if he thought it would give him a jump to second base. Edd Roush was born May 8, 1893 in Oakland City, Indiana. He’s scrappy and combative but directs it all on the opposing team. Known as the game’s greatest place hitter, he swings a full 48 ounces of heavy timber at the plate. If you think he’ll push it to left, he smacks it to right. Get a lazy pitcher and he might just rip it right past the pitcher’s noggin. Last season he led the team to a World Series victory against the White Sox, in part by winning the batting title with a .321 average. It was the second title that he’s taken, the first being in 1917 when he hit .341.

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.
