Item Description
8x10" thin board w/fully painted art which is signed at lower right "Jorge S." Great action image of Marsans in his Almendares Scorpions uniform having just hit a pitch as he watches the ball intently to see if it was a home run. By the expression on the catcher's face, it was! Spectators fill the stands in the bkg. Top left has title w/his name and "Outfielder". At top right is Scorpions pennant. Marsans played winter baseball in the Cuban League from 1905 to 1928 and was a Major League outfielder from 1911 to 1918. He was one of ten players inducted into the Cuban Baseball HOF in its 1939 inaugural class. From the Richard Merkin Collection and comes with Hake's COA.
