I was doing some e-bay searches tonight looking for any significant Negro League or Cuban League items that had sold over the past couple of months. Much to my amazement, I came across the following listing:

Looks like a really cool piece, assuming that it is legitimate. Has anyone ever seen a team photo, white or black, that was produced as advertising for a cigar company and affixed to one of their boxes? I have seen many individual players but not a team like this, especially not African American. Could it simply be a team photo that someone just attached to the cigar box later on? If so, probably not a smart move as it sold for much less than a regular photo of that team would have brought.
Thoughts?
