Cuban baseball postcard
4 Attachment(s)
Looking for some help with baseball postcard from Cuba - it is the Havana baseball team - not sure if they played/trashed the A's from the USA ? Year?
Value ? |
It's Almendares, another Cuban team. Probably a postcard either commemorating a defeat or hoping for one.

This was likely from the 1948-49 season or thereabouts. Late '40s for sure. |
In my opinion I think this postcard is much earlier than stated above. I believe it's in reference to 1910 Cuban-American Series. The Cuban teams went 6-4 against the World Series Champion Athletics. Almendares was managed by Al Cabrera and the Athletics managed by Harry Davis/ Danny Murphy (My great great gramps). Also, If this piece becomes available I'd be interested. Thanks again.

The artists signature has a date under it. To me it looks like 1944 or 1966. From the overall look, I'd think 44 was more likely.

Upon further research my assessment was totally incorrect, my apologies.

The writing on the card talks about the A being from Almendares.
