Not much there.... but can still get lucky
From my sources, there is just not a lot there anymore, but this does not mean that there is nothing down there.
A friend of mine recently found a number of interesting items that paid for the trip. But from what I have heard, the vast majority of the island has been picked clean as a few big traders sent kids door to door searching for these items (and paying "finders fees) for years trying to drag the out the cards and photos. They were quite successful, but the result has been less than 10 copies of most issues.
I have never been to Cuban for this purpose, but it certainly sounds fun... if you knew who to meet with. Without connections, I imagine that it would be quite difficult, but who knows....
