Extremely rare 1927 portrait photograph of Angel "Cuco" Alfonso who was a good player in the Negro Leagues from 1924-1930. He is pictured here in 1927 as a member of the Havana club in full uniform. This is the only known photograph of Alfonso and it is an absolute work of early Negro league art! One of the finest portraits of any Negro Leaguer we have ever handled and offered here for the first time ever!
