Is Ernesto still around? Somewhere I have a picture of me with him. Same with Luis Zayas. When I asked Ernesto who the toughest hitter he faced was, he said Silvio Garcia. I asked him who the best pitcher he ever saw was and he said Camilo Pascual. Then he showed me the grip Camilo used for his devastating curveball. I am grateful you introduced us. Good memories.

Here are pics of your Minoso. I guess the scans were different sizes. Great looking card and so high grade for the series.

León, that is a good card from Miñoso and it is the first that was printed from him in 1945, "Caramelos Felices".

Wow! You never see a '45 Minoso in such nice shape. A 1 is usually the best you could hope for. Very nice!

Today in the afternoon they sent me an email informing me that my 3 catalogs were for sale on eBay Cuban baseball, I don't have an eBay connection, and they sent me photos, this week that ended, a friend took those 3 to Spain that he put them up for sale , I inform you that of volume 1, there are only 10 copies, of volume 2, 3 copies have been printed and of volume 3, only 2 copies have been printed, and since they all have a copyright registration number, but they also have its printing number, of all the volumes 001 are mine, and as you can see from volume 2 there are only two more and from volume 3, there is only the one that is for sale, there has been a lot of difficulty due to the covid and the registry offices 11 months closed, on the other hand, the 1st quality materials for the preparation of the catalogs very difficult to obtain, like the inks for the laser printer, now I show a photo that I took a few minutes ago of the three catalogs and some inner sheets, they are something out of focus and I don't know in good, low light and the camera of my old mobile phone.

Now I show a photo that I took with my phone of one of the several sheets dedicated to pins, belonging to Volume 3 of my catalogs.

I show a printed propaganda of the Cristal Beer, where we see the Pitcher Rogelio (Limonar) Martínez, with his records in 1943, at the time he played as amateurs for the Clud Deporrivo Matanzas.
