Presented is a charming 1972 Puerto Rican Baseball League complete sticker album containing 231 stickers (2.1x3", and in color), with 44 pages (including covers) and a special nearly full-page sticker of Hall of Famer Roberto Clemente. Other National Baseball Hall of Famers are depicted on the 2.1x3" stickers, such as Mike Schmidt, Rich Gossage, Orlando Cepeda, Tony Perez, and Frank Robinson, whose sticker depicts him as the manager of Santurce. Stickers of stars and other Major Leaguers: Felix Millan, Willie Montanez, Sixto Lezcano, Steve Rogers, Sandy Alomar, Manny Sanguillen, Richie Zisk, Jose Pagan, Elrod Hendricks, Juan Pizzaro, Ron Cey, and more. The sticker book's biographies and the book's other writing are in Spanish. The softcover book measures 6.4x8.75". A special section in the back of the book includes famous baseball old-timers, such as Hall of Famer Satchel Paige, and Negro League star Quincy Trouppe. The stickers were carefully attached to the book, and each sticker is set above a brief player biography. The sticker album is just over a half century old, and yet it remains in very good condition. It provides a marvelous vintage look at the Puerto Rican Baseball League.
