About the Player

A short bio from the Boston Garter Game of the Century card back: Cleveland’s Wes Ferrell is another pitcher with a smoking fast ball Connie Mack can call on to stymie NL batters in the upcoming so-called “all star” game. If Ferrell can control his temper, that is. The hot head was suspended and fined by mgr. Peckinpaugh in 1932 for refusing to leave a game. Under control, Wes is tough to beat. He set a record by winning 20 or more games his first 4 years in the big leagues, and he threw a no-hit game at the St. Louis Browns in 1931. No cake at bat, Ferrell slammed 9 home runs that same year.

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.
