Comments on this Card
'Part 1880's style, part 1910's style… It becomes our own style.' -Charles
About the Player
The short bio from the Helmar-R319 card back: 'He's got a gun concealed on his person. They can't tell me he throws them balls with just his arm,' says penman Ring Lardner about young Walter Johnson. Johnson features one pitch, the fastball, which has whistled past many an American League batter these past five seasons. In 1911, “The Big Train” racked up 207 strikeouts. In 1910, he notched 313 whiffs. He achieved 25 victories in both ’10 and ’11 and looks forward to more. The “Big Train” stands 6’1” and is 200 pounds. Rumor is circulating that he is trying to perfect a curve ball.
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'.
