Item Description
8x10" thin board w/fully painted art which is signed at lower right "Jorge S." Art is of Brown in a Santiago uniform on the pitcher's mound and winding up to throw a pitch. Teammates and umpire are in the bkg. along with advertising billboards on the outfield wall. Title at top right is "Raymond Brown Pitcher" and at top left is team pennant. This image is based on a specific game from the short lived Players Federation Cuban League which existed just one season, 1947-48. More precisely, this image is based on Brown's one and only game played for this team which itself only lasted 21 games of the aforementioned season before Santiago folded and some of the team's players were absorbed by the remaining three teams. Brown was inducted into the National Baseball HOF in 2006. From the Richard Merkin Collection and comes with Hake's COA.
