1945-46 Caramelo Deportivo #62 of Negro Leaguer Silvio García. Graded a 1 by SGC. A legit HOF candidate, Silvio played shortstop in the Negro Leagues as well as Venezuela, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Canada, and his native Cuba. He was one of the Branch Rickey considered to break the color barrier. He won two batting titles in Cuba, but was also an excellent pitcher.
