Received this in the mail today from the bay.
Cuban card pre dates Newk's MLB rookie card by a few years and also pictures him in his Newark Eagles uniform. I believe the only other contemporary cards that show players in their Negro uni's are the Doble Aguila Dihigo (Hilldale) and the 2 Toleteros of Fernando Pedroso (NY Cubans) but please correct me if I'm forgetting someone else.
Anyways, pretty important card IMO when it comes to collecting Cuban cards and if I was compiling a list of TOP100 Negro cards, this one may slip in.
This is the only one graded by SGC and none by PSA.
