About the Player

A short bio from the Helmar-R319 card back: Known to his fans as “the Kentucky Colonel,” Earle has a distinguished demeanor about him that teammates and fans admire. They also admire his abilities at the plate including last season’s 1932 batting average of .321. It was yet another wonderful season for Earle as the Yanks romped to another World Series Championship. Earle had a slow start last season but broke out on April 28 by going two for three with four runs batted in against the Athletics. The Yanks won that game 7 to 5 and soon after Earle went on a streak of twelve games where he made base at least once in each game.

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.
