Cigarros PUNCH 1910 Almendares

[Roland 49]

"PUNCH" 1910 Cigars. In the 40 years that I have been a researcher and collector, this is the rarest card I know of from that collection, in Volume 2 of my Specialized Catalogs I give details about it.

Are those individual cards, in the book, Roland?

The Punch 1919 card collection has cards from the Almendares, Havana teams and the Major League teams that were in Cuba to face the Cuban teams, one of the most sought-after cards is that of Detroit, where the Ty Cobb card appears , in Volume 1 of my Specialized Catalogs, all the collections of Cuban cards from 1909, Cabañas Cigars up to 1957 appear, and each collection has illustrated pages with the cards and names, in this case that I show is a larger card with the Almendares players and since it is of a larger format shown in Volume 2, they made individual cards for the players.

In the individual cards of the "Punch Cigars" collection they have a frame on all four sides, in the card that I showed with all the photos of the Almendares players, note that they are the original photos of the players without the frame, and the frame black covers all four sides of the set, now I show a card of José Mendez.

I show some Punch Cigars cards that I scanned years ago in my house, Ty Cobb and others from the teams that played in 1910 in Havana, the Almendares ones were glued one next to the other on the album sheet of the same player Juan Viola
