Posted By: <b>Thomas</b><p>Hello,<BR><BR> ...and for my next inquiry...Does anyone know anything about any vintage sets that features Negro League players? I have seen some mention here and there about cards issued in Cuba during the 40's. But I really can't find any solid information on these or any cards that have Negro League players on it. I have some of the modern sets but I think it would be really fascinating to find period issued cards. Any help would really be appreciated...<BR><BR>Thanks,<BR>Thomas

Oscar Charleston, Pop Lloyd, Cristobal Torriente, Jose Mendez, Oliver Marcelle, etc. E-mail me any time if you have any questions.
