Specialized Catalog Cuban Cards Answer

[Schlesinj]

Hi Roland, I know this is a shot in the dark, but curious if you have any knowledge of this photo. It appears to be just a social event, but wondering if you happen to recognize the other individual. It appears to be in the 1950s. Nothing is shown on the back as it came off a scrapbook. Thanks as always.

I’ll take a stab at it, L-R Dihigo, Laz Salazar and Connie Marrero, all three are Cuban greats.

[Jason19th]

I think Steve is correct and that put the photo before 1958 because Salazar died in 1957- in a fitting end to a baseball life he had a brain bleed and died in the dugout during a game he was managing

[Schlesinj]

Thank you both!

[Roland 49]

In the photo you show there are Martin Dihigo, Lazaro Salazar and on the right a Mexican team manager, I don't know his name, the photo is in Mexico. Now I show a photo of Martin Dihigo interviewing Mike González.

Those Cabanas are great. Thanks for posting them.

[Roland 49]

In the other of my threads I informed you that my catalogs are for sale on ebay cuban baseball, now I answer a question that they asked me in a message, the seller sells them separately, in different items, volume 1, is cards of 1909 Cigars Cabañas, until 1957 Pelotero Chicle, volume 2, from 1887 to 1960, cards and prints in a larger format than those of volume 1, and volume 3, of everything related to Cuban Memorabilia; in metals, fabrics, glassware, ceramics, etc. I show something from volume 2, different collections of cards.

[Roland 49]

On one of the pages of Volume 2 of my ticket-themed catalogs to the stadiums, we see Havana Park and Almendares Park from the 1880s and Estadio La Tropical, with a photo by Ty Cobb.

"Palmira Caramelos" cards that brought the candies and were pasted in the album according to their numbering and filled the figure of the mascots of the professional Cuban baseball teams, it is like a puzzle, they appear in Volume 2 of my catalogs in the part of games.

[jjbond]

Awesome thread! I don't have much to add to it, but I do have this item. But I'm not sure if it's actually from Cuba, or from a stateside team with a Cuba name (Kansas?). Thoughts?

[Roland 49]

JJBOND, what you show I don't know, I think it's not Cuban, thanks for showing it. Now you will see a ball-clock, inside the elephant of Cienfuegos.

Never even saw or heard of Ortopedia Diaz cards before! What is their history?

[Roland 49]

The collection of "Ortopedia Díaz" 1949 cards is not common, they are rare, very few collectors have any, in my Specialized Catalog I detail them together with the well-known and little-known ones, now I show the Album cover, and the Raymond Dandridge card.

Absolutely love this image. Very touching.

[Roland 49]

I also find the photo of Sal Maglie with the child interesting, now I show a card from the Happy Candies 1945-46 collection with Salvatore Maglie.
