About the Player
A short bio from the Boston Garter Game of the Century card back: Last year “Poosh ‘Em Up Tony” helped the Yankees win their third Worlds Championship and fourth AL pennant since 1926. Lazzeri, who has always displayed good power for a second baseman, hit 2 home runs in the concluding fourth game of the World Series to nail the Cubs’ coffin shut. Before coming to New York he hit 60 homers and racked up 222 RBI in one season (1925) for Salt Lake City. Tony was tarred for striking out with the bases loaded in the seventh inning of Game Seven of the 1926 World Series, but mgr. Huggins defended him, saying, “Anyone can strike out, but ballplayers like Lazzeri come along once in a generation.”
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.
