About the Player

Ty Cobb says [about the 1910 season]: “We were away out in front, and it looked like a cinch that we would grab the championship until Coombs hit Gainor, the Tigers' new first baseman, in the arm with a pitched ball and broke it. We had taken the first two games of the series with the Athletics by big scores, but the team began to go bad just as soon as we lost Gainor. It cracked our infield. Even Connie Mack said of Gainor : ' He looked like one of the best first base men I ever saw come into the league.'

About the Series

Seven layers make up a Helmar Oasis card. Each layer has to fit perfectly. It takes a long time to construct each card, then scuff it to make it seem well-worn; it's already well-loved, by us. Oasis is designed to evoke the Gaslight Style, a name applied to commercial trade signs of the 1870's through 1890's, in an era that succumbed to electric light. The essence of Helmar Oasis is depth. The pictures of the players arise in a shadowy light, to seem like they're almost emerging from another plane of existence. Each card is about 2.65' x 4'.
