Fidel Castro/Minneapolis Millers Photo
 
Posted By: <b>Sean</b><p>Howdy All!<br />I have ventured into photo collecting; and since I collect Cuban memorabilia and Minneapolis Millers memorabilia I thought this would be a perfect fit. The problem is I really have no knowledge on dating or authenticating photos. I found a similar photo in the Smithsonian Baseball book on page 169 (Marshall Fogel owns it). Anything I can do to date it or anyone have any insight? The photo measures about 7.25" x 9.5", few creases & has a semi glossy surface and spots that are more of a matte finish (due to wear?).<br /><br /><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g193/hanksta3/CastroMillersF.jpg"><br /><br />Back:<br /><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g193/hanksta3/CastroMillerB.jpg"><br /><br />Marshall Fogels photo:<br /><img src="http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g193/hanksta3/Marshall169.jpg"><br /><br /><br />Thanks,<br />Sean<br />
