About the Player
A short bio from the Helmar-R319 card back: When Mr. Mack really needs to win a big game he hands the ball to “Chief”. Not only is Bender a wonderful pitcher but he knows what it takes to win. Began his career in 1903 and was a star from the start, winning 17 games while still only 19 years old. In 1905 he and Mr. Mack won the American League crown, with Chief winning 18. After a couple close runs at it, they won the pennant again in 1910. Born in 1884 in Crow Wing County, Wisconsin. Attended the Carlisle Indian industrial School near Philly and also attended Dickinson college in the same area. He is a tall one at 6 feet and 2 inches and weighs in at 185 pounds.
About the Series
Rough and tumble early 20th century players spring to life in our third series of Helmar Cabinets. We’ve selected some of our favorite historic photos and have artfully colorized the player figures and set them against original backgrounds that evoke the magnificent style of the period. True to the period, the player images are separate and have been pasted to a colorful, ripple-edged scene of a ballpark.
Collect this series and you’ll understand why Helmar is called “The Flavor of the Game”.
Card size: 4” x 6”
