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
Rough and tumble early 20th century players spring to life in our third series of Helmar Cabinets. We’ve selected some of our favorite historic photos and have artfully colorized the player figures and set them against original backgrounds that evoke the magnificent style of the period. True to the period, the player images are separate and have been pasted to a colorful, ripple-edged scene of a ballpark. Collect this series and you’ll understand why Helmar is called “The Flavor of the Game”. Note: #42-53 have a population of 23. All others were limited to 20.
Card size: 4” x 6”
