Vintage Latin American Baseball Magazines- unappreciated treasures
 

Though rarely talked about and infrequently traded this magazines are a gold mine for Negro Leaguers, Major League stars in unfamiliar uniforms and Latin players seen in few images. This magazines were published from the 1930-1980 and are heavy on photos. Would love to see what else is out there

Negro League Stars Junior Gilliam, Sam Bankhead and George Scales

This team seems good

Maybe this team is even better. 1954 Puerto Rican Winter League with Willie Mays and Clemente in the same outfield

Some catcher named Gibson

A negro League great

A negro League great in a batting pose

An ageless pitchman who should be in the hall

An artists eye

I just picked up this beauty recently off eBay. And yes, Minnie Minoso should most definitely be in the Hall of Fame. I'd take him over a couple dozen guys who have been inducted.

Latin American Cleveland Baseball Magazines
 

I LOVE finding previously unknown (unknown to me, anyways) Latin American Baseball Mags with Cleveland Indians on the cover. Always looking for more!

I lived/worked in Mexico City 1979-80, and was delighted to find magazines like Beisbol, Hit, and Super Hit on the street news stands. What was even more impressive was that it wasn't at all unusual to find copies of magazines that were 8-10 years old! My Spanish was very limited, so I didn't ask questions - I just bought whatever they had. I got the impression that if an edition didn't sell, they just left if on the stand until it did!

I was especially interested to find copies of Quien es Quien - the Mexican version of Who's Who in Baseball.

And yes, I still have them all somewhere.

1927 and 1937

Man those are GREAT! Looking at these postings is like a breath of fresh air..... old players with vintage colorations but never seen by most until now! That Ruth and Gehrig magazine cover is DA BOMB!
