About the Player
A short bio from the Helmar-R319 card back: In Boston, centerfield belongs to this six foot, two inch slugger. In his very first season, 1930, the 24 year old rookie pounded 38 home runs and brought home 119 runs batted in. His batting average was .310, and Braves fans quickly made him a favorite. He’s kept his average over the .300 mark every season since, so it was no fluke. “Wally” has also batted in more than 100 runs three times since, including 130 last year. That was more than any other National League batter could muster for the entire 1935 season. Boston always seems to bring up the rear in the standings but Wally is a bright spot.
About the Series
Helmar Imperial Cabinets are mammoth. Each is about the size of a sheet of paper. They are thick, sturdy, and beautiful. There are two series in this set; series one measures 8.25' x 10.875', while series two is a shade smaller. The second series features a multi-colored border. The art was produced using a variety of methods. Each card takes a long time to assemble, to scrape, rub, treat, and transform, so it seems that you are holding a huge, overwhelmingly-beautiful card from the turn of the last century.
