Grouping of three photos each originating from the same collection in Cuba which may depict some better-known players. The photo to the extreme left torn from some sort of album with significant wear includes a player likely to be Julio Rojo of the Havana Lions a Cuban catcher and outfielder who played in the American Negro Leagues between 1916 and 1930. The center image includes a player shaking hands with a gentleman who appears to be Tony Oliva though fading makes it considerably difficult to ascertain. THe snapshot on the right is likely to depict Mario Ariosa Cuban second baseman and outfielder who spent significant time in the Mexican league between 1947 and 1972 and is a member of the Mexican Baseball Hall of Fame. All three photos originate from Cuba and are well-worn with significant fading tearing and overall wear. Still a grouping of interesting original baseball photos from Cuba. NOTE: Special thanks to Ryan Christoff of Cuban Baseball Auctions for his assistance with player identification.
