Sometimes, we think that Baseball is an exclusively American sport. But in 1943, baseball was big in Cuba. This Cuban card features one of many amateur players in this set.
It took me a while to figure it out but it says Cienfuegos across Trujillo's chest. I figured this was a mascot but I was wrong.
Cinefuegos is actually a city on Cuba's southern coast about 150 miles from Havana.

Happy to see the posts lately. I don't comment much but I read every one of them. Just wanted to let you know someone was reading cause I know it is disappointing when no one comments.
Thanks Adam ... It really makes a difference when people comment ... at least I know ther's someone out there reading ...
Hello Just wanted you to know that the Baseball card you are writing about is my grandfather. He was on the Cienfuegos baseball team. You are correct in what you were writing about. If you have any interest in selling the card let me know. Would love to have it. Thank you
