I think part of the perception of why there might be a lot more of these cards waiting to be discovered is because there might be this idea that baseball fans in Latin American countries didn't value cards the way we do. That's fair enough--this is a strange hobby and it's undertandable to think other people don't obsess over it the way we do. Unfortunately for those of us who love and collect these cards, it just isn't true. Collectors in Cuba and Puerto Rico and Venezuela know what they have and love their cards just as much as we do. Also, they have internet connections and know the value of a dollar. Piles of these cards aren't going to just turn up. It ain't gong to happen. I would advise you to get 'em when you see 'em, but you'd only be getting in my way. So just keeping waiting for that giant stash!
