About the Player

A short bio from the Helmar “This Great Game” card back: When the Braves signed young Henry out of the negro leagues, they toyed with the notion of making him a switch-hitter. One day while batting lefty, Aaron let the bat slip from his hands and nearly clocked Joe Adcock in the skull. That ended the experiment. Aaron needn’t hit from the other side, he’s a dangerous man from the right side of the plate. According to one NL hurler, throwing a fastball past Aaron is like “trying to sneak the sunrise past a rooster.”

About the Series

The glory of 19th century design is revisited in this series by your friends at Helmar. We've kept the look of the early line drawings but improved them so that the players are recognizable. Yet again, all the artwork is original to Helmar and printed in stunning color. We've chosen a beautiful paper with a soft hand that tested best for the subtle color transitions. Each card is about 3' x 5'.
