Item Description
3-1/8x5-7/8" original glossy photo showing team in uniforms posed on a ball field. Reverse has writing in both English and Spanish and in ink and pencil along w/ink stamp date of 1930 but we believe the 1928-1929 team is pictured as Dihigo moved on to the Almendares Scorpions in 1930 (Dihigo is in the front row 3rd from the right). Also included on this photo is fellow HOF member Alejandro Oms in addition to Mike Gonzales, Julio Rojo, Pelayo Chacon and Paito Herrera. Reverse has some traces of paper where scrapbook mounted. Lt. handling wear but clean and glossy w/sharp image. VF. An expectational team photo featuring stars of both the Negro and Cuban Leagues. From the Richard Merkin Collection and comes with Hake's COA.
