This has been an incredible thread! Roland, you have an amazing collection! Could you or anyone else please help me with the photo shown below that I recently acquired? The picture appears to be of the Clio baseball team. They are sitting under a sign for the Marianao baseball club. I found an earlier image of a Clio team scorecard on Ryan's website but very little else about the team. Here are my questions:

1. What approximate era is this photo from? I am guessing teens/1920s based on the equipment but I am not sure.
2. Was this a local team or some sort of semi pro team?
3. Is Clio a town in Cuba? I am having some trouble with online searches for that information.
4. Any other information about this photo or where it was taken?
5. What Marianao team was founded in 1910? My online search skills are limited, but I thought Wikipedia showed the Marianao team starting in the 1920s.

I have a better scan (600 DPI) I can email if that helps. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Alan
