Here is a team photo known to be the 1922 Cuban Stars, jerseys and pants are similar to those on the e-bay postcard, maybe even the same, but socks are different and no Dihigo pictured. I have seen conflicting info on whether Dihigo played for the Cuban Stars in 1922, rosters and stats do not show him there but many of the biographies and narratives that I have read do mention him playing for the Cuban Stars in 1922.
Anyway, just curious, Ryan, how did you come up with the 1923 date as opposed to the other years mentioned. I researched a couple of guys like Teran and Perez and Lopez, who were listed on the '23 roster, but I don't see them in the photo. Who are the remaining couple of ID's that are missing and probably the ones that solve the puzzle?
