Vintage real photo postcard featuring Cuban sensation and Hall of Famer Martin Dihigo. Toned 3x5" card dates from the 1940s with the man known as "The Immortal" (due to his extensive talent) surrounded by about a dozen others. Card has cuts to all four corners, with extensive paper loss to back exposing the corrugated card stock which has caused impression lines across the back. The Cuban-born Dihigo was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1977 by the Negro Leagues committee and stands tall in his white hat in the center of the image.
