About the Player
A short bio from the Helmar-R319 card back: “Dizzy” Dean is the moundleader of the “Gas House Gang.” He has never had a losing season for the Cardinals, racking up 18 wins in ’32, 20 in ’33, 30 in ’34, 28 in ’35, and 24 in ’36, with a season’s ERA never above 3.17. “Ol’ Diz” won 2 games and lost 1 in the Cardinals’ victorious 1934 World Series. During the 7th game, which the Cardinals won 11-0, player-manager Frankie Frisch called time and warned Dizzy that he will be removed from the game unless he stops clowning around. Dizzy replied, “No you won’t,” and Frisch silently retreated to his position. Dizzy is 6’2” and 183 pounds.
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'. Gouache paintings by J. Scott Pedely.
