[Frankish]

I know it is a photo rather than a card, but do you happen to know the name of the player sitting next to Castro here? Thank you!

Continuous, Manuel López was right to set his eyes on the English market, in 1559, a theatrical work called Cuban Ebullition was performed in London, the artists released the smoke with pressure and intermittently, in 1598 the German traveler P. Hentzener in his book "Memories of travel" writes that the English wherever they are smoke La Hierva Nicoteana, in 1620 Bernabe Rich, calculates the volume of sale in London that is half a million pounds that comes in each year. In the early years of the 20th century, several companies, including "American Tobacco" and several others, entered Cuba and bought 291 brands of tobacco and 85 cigarettes. In 1910, "Los Independientes" emerged, who were the ones who did not sell their factories. they were "Punch". Now you will see several images of this brand in boxes and rings.

Franco, it seems to me that the player is Agustín Arias, he was a great hitter in 1971, he was a champion bat, with the Mineros team from Oriente province, he doesn't look very good in the photo.

Thank you! I really appreciate you taking the time to go over our questions. And of course I always enjoy posts from your collection (even if many do make me envious).

You are right...he doesn't look very good. Although this must be early in his career I am guessing, when his hitting was not so consistent....

All the best!

¡Hola, Roland! Nuestras disculpas una vez más por otro retraso en la respuesta.
Normalmente nos abstenemos de publicar a menos que los tres podamos colaborar,
y uno de nosotros tuvo otra breve estancia en el hospital y luego varios días recuperándonos
en casa, así que no pudimos reunirnos.

¡Esas muñecas de béisbol son una delicia! Gracias por mostrarles. No habíamos
sospechado, a juzgar por su primera foto de la muñeca Almendares, que eran tan grandes
como se revelan por el segunda foto.

¡Saludos!

Butch, now I am sending you a photo of the Baseball Martin's game, it is very rare, I have only seen the one from my collection, in the photo you will see part of the board, you will notice that with your finger the arrow is driven and where it falls, that is the play, It also has a blackboard to mark the outs, strikes, balls, etc. It comes in its box and lid, now I ask you there are several baseball things such as toys, marugas, bicycle bells for children etc. are you interested? let me know. Greetings and take care of your health.

Jason, I am sending you a photo of an American Series program in La Tropical, this is from 1940, maybe you have it or you are interested in seeing it, there are many since every year they were made in Cuba, on the cover you see Jhonny Mize.
