About the Player

From the 'This Great Game' card back: Ferris Fain won two batting crowns, but hardly anyone seemed to know it because he suffered playing for the woeful Athletics. In 1951 the broad-shouldered first baseman from San Antonio batted .344 to easily outpace the rest of the league, and to prove it wasn’t a fluke, he batted .327 the following season to pace the circuit again. He was a rascal between the white lines: known as “Burr Head” because of his hot temper, he must have gotten mad a lot playing for a second-division team nearly every year.

About the Series

Each Helmar T3 is 8.5' x 4.25', close in size and style to the beautiful cards that make up the original T3 Turkey Red series of 1911.
