About the Player
The short bio from the Helmar-R319 card back: 1909 found 42-year-old “Cy” back in Cleveland, the city in which his Major League career began, when he played for the Spiders. He was traded from the Red Sox for Jack Ryan, Charlie Chech, and perhaps more impressively, $12,500. “Cy” saw 19 wins, 15 losses, and compiled a 2.26 ERA with the 1909 Naps. In total he’s racked up 490 wins, 288 losses, and just might be the greatest pitcher we’ve ever seen. Can he go on forever? Cy” bats right, throws right, stands 6’2”, and these days, won’t set foot on a scale.
About the Series
There have been baseball themed games almost as long as the game of baseball has been around. The first baseball parlour game, for example, was advertised in the December, 1866 installment of Leslie Magazine—just a year after Lincoln's assassination! Hundreds of games since that date have delighted fans. However, never to our knowledge has anyone married baseball stars with the popular hand puzzles that were so popular from about 1890 to 1965—until now. We think that you'll spend more quality time with these games than much of the rest of your collection. 2.5" diameter, two sided, glass both sides. Note: puzzles #5 Alexander, 6 Walsh, 20 Ewing, 25 Tinker and 27 Wilson were not issued due to a manufacturing error.
27 puzzles of each number have been produced.
