Currently, I am trying to sell a newer addition to my collection. Recently, I found this circa 1920s ORIGINAL Cuban Stars photo. Until I saw this very photo, I had never seen another image of it anywhere.
As most of you know, vintage negro and cuban memorabilia such as this, are rarely seen. The photo includes Herman Rios (part of the 1923-24 Billiken set), Jose Maria Fernandez (part of every big 1920s Cuban set), and EUSTAQUIO PEDROSO (an early cuban star who pitched a gem against the world champion detroit tigers). Pedroso is part of three cuban sets, but his memorabilia other than that is VERY RARELY EVER SEEN.
Rios is 1st in line far left.
JM Fernandez is 2nd from right.
Pedroso is 4th from right.
I hate to sell the card, but at this time I just cannot have this much money tied up in one item. Family is going through a lot. I will continue to buy cards that are cheaply priced, but like I said this piece costs to much to have at this particular moment.
Price is $2,100.00
This card came from one of, if not the most, reputable cuban and negro card dealer around and I will be glad to shar more information with you about it through email. Feel free to email me at
