Large 1946 action photograph of Negro League Hall of Famer Ray Brown in uniform with the Almendares team of the Cuban Leagues. This is actually two images artfully arranged to make a killer display, the intent of which was to illustrate a blown call by umpires. The large photo shows Brown covering first and getting the out while the inset close-up is supposed to show that Brown missed the bag! Regardless of the long forgotten importance of the exact play, the result is one of the only original action shots of Hall of Famer Ray Brown that exists!
