My understanding is that the number of teams varied slightly throughout the history of the Cuban League, but I think these four (Almendares, Habana, Marianao, and Cienfuegos) were the main four and those that stayed in operation until the end in 1961.

Great group! I’ve only ever seen one Almendares pinback before.

Not surprisingly there is an Ernie Banks in this style of glossy 3.5" pin that also has close up photos of Ron Santo, Billy Williams, and Glenn Beckert. I would guess they are from 1972 or 1973. They have cardboard backs that could be used as stands. The Banks was recently on eBay and is the first one I have seen.

I have the Banks pin, but it's a little smaller, and it's not cropped so tight.

Ernie’s facsimile signature changed quite a bit. Did this happen in “real life,” as with Mays?
