1945-46 Caramelo Deportivo #18 Lázaro Salazar graded a 1 by PSA. One of the best Cuban league players of his generation, the severely-underappreciated Salazar played for an incredible 21 years and coached / managed for years after that. He is one of very few players to be enshrined in three Halls of Fame (Cuba, Mexico, and Venezuela). A lifetime .300+ hitter in American Negro Leagues, Salazar won a Cuban League batting title in the 1934–35 season, hitting .407.
The cards in the Caramelo Deportivo issues measure approximately 1 7/8" by 2 5/8". They are paper thin and were designed to be pasted into albums. Most cards in circulation have been removed from their albums, and back damage is common. Fronts feature a black-and-white photo surrounded by a thin black border and creamy white margins, with the card number in a small circle at the bottom. Backs list the player's name, brief bio, and a promotional advertisement for the issuer, "Felices.”
