Item Description
1-5/8x2.25" Cuban card tobacco issue. Numbered C21-60, the baseball cards are part of a much larger set that also features boxers, actors and actresses, nudes and more. The baseball sub-set pictures mostly players from the 1923-24 Cuban Professional League. Printed on glossy paper, the cards were meant to be glued into an album.
Ramon "Mike" Herrera totaled 276 at-bats in 1925 and 1926 while serving as a second baseman for the Red Sox (an even .275 batting average). He also played for Negro League teams both before and after his stretch with Boston, one of just 11 players who played in both the Negro Leagues and major leagues before World War II. His 18 seasons of Cuban baseball left him with a .291 batting average and he was inducted into the Cuban Baseball Hall Of Fame in 1963. This card is graded 30 Good 2 and is designated by SGC as being from the "Richard Merkin Collection" and comes with Hake's COA.
