About the Player
A short bio from the Helmar-R319 card back: “Rock” usually hits the ball hard, amassing large quantities of doubles, triples, and homers. On July 1, 1935, he was lighting firecrackers, and one blew up too soon, blasting lacerations in Earl’s hand and face. Luckily for Indians fans, Earl made a full recovery. In 1936 he led the American League with 232 hits and 15 triples, while finishing second in batting average, with .378. Lifetime, he’s hitting above .310, with a slugging percentage over .525. A solid center fielder, Earl played 3 seasons for San Francisco in the Pacific Coast League before being picked up by Cleveland. He lives in Snohomish, Washington.
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”
